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.A bomb has ripped through the third floor of the state television building in Damascus, Syrian state-run TV said today.
The report said at least three people were injured in the blast.
The building, which also houses the country's state radio, is located at the Umawiyyeen roundabout in the centre of Damascus.
The Syrian capital has seen a string of suicide attacks and other bombings in the past few months as the country's civil war has escalated.
A pro-government private Syrian TV station, Al-Ikhbariya, showed pictures of employees inspecting damage in the TV building and tending to a wounded colleague.
Syrian state TV remained on air.
