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.

Jerusalem (Reuter) - A legal challenge to Israel's expulsion of hundreds of Palestinians began in the Supreme Court yesterday, with the state warning that an order to bring the deportees home would be a 'fatal blow' to security organisations.

The hearing into the legality of the deportation last month of more than 400 Palestinians to Lebanon began four hours before the Egyptian Foreign Minister, Amr Moussa, arrived in Israel to discuss fears that the expulsions could derail the Middle East peace talks.
