From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A Bosnian court has jailed a man for 10 years for taking part in the massacre of 8,000 people at Srebrenica in 1995.
Marko Boskic, 46, was found guilty of crimes against humanity after confessing his role in the killings. Prosecutors said in mitigation that he gave "important information" that will help in prosecuting others.
Boskic, a Bosnian Croat, was extradited from the US in April. He and seven other members of a Bosnian Serb commando squad "shot from automatic guns at several hundred blindfolded Muslim detainees", the court said.
