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.Several thousand marchers shouting 'No god but Allah' set out yesterday to try to storm the Indian-defended ceasefire line dividing the disputed region of Kashmir, Reuter reports from Muzaffarabad.
The Kashmir branch of the Pakistan People's Party organised the march to demonstrate support for a three-year separatist rebellion in Indian-ruled Kashmir. About 3,000 marchers halted for the night at the village of Ghari Dopatta after digging their way through three huge landslides created the day before when police dynamited the hillside.
