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.At least 13 people have been killed and scores more injured in two powerful explosions in Russia's restive North Caucasus.
Emergency ministry chief physician in Dagestan, Kazanfar Kurbanov, said today that more than 120 people were injured and 15 of them are in critical condition.
Authorities are treating yesterday's blasts as an attack by insurgents.
Dagestan is plagued by frequent attacks on police and civilians by Islamist insurgence.
The insurgency spread to the region from neighbouring Chechnya where Russian federal forces have fought two wars with separatists since 1994.
