Your support helps us to tell the story
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.Talks in Mogadishu calmed a row over UN demands for the recall of General Bruno Loi, the commander of Italy's peace-keeping troops there, Reuter reports from Rome. Italian newspapers said the Italian contingent would stay in Mogadishu and Gen Loi would not return to Rome until his tour of duty ended in September. Mohamed Farah Aideed, the fugitive Somali warlord, urged his followers to rise against the UN force: 'We cannot accept foreign domination. I am asking the Somali people to wake up and defend our independence,' he said in a statement read at a rally.
