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.

A Jewish dance group was attacked with stones by a group of children during a performance at a street festival in the Germany city of Hanover, police said yesterday.

After one dancer suffered a leg injury, the group cancelled its performance. The teenagers also used a megaphone to shout anti-Semitic slurs during the Saturday afternoon attack. Police said the incident is under investigation and that they do not have an exact number of attackers yet.

A police spokesman said there were several Muslim immigrant youths among the attackers.
