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.

The bodies of two men were found by rescue services in a loch in Argyll this morning.

The search was launched after four men, aged in their 30s and 40s, were on Loch Awe early this morning. They were thought to have been in a small boat.

The continuing efforts to look for the remaining two men involve police, a Royal Navy helicopter and coastguards.

Police received a call at about 3.45am and the bodies of the two dead men were recovered at 6.17am.

A Strathclyde Police spokesman said: "All available means are being used for the search and the search is still ongoing at present."

The search is focused on the area close to Kilchurn Castle, near Dalmally.
