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.

Thrill-seekers high on adrenalin and low on sleep have run alongside huge bulls on the third day at the San Fermin festival in Pamplona. Three people were hurt, including one man who was gored in a leg.

Saturday's run is traditionally one of the most crowded of the eight that take place annually. It featured the massive fighting bulls of the Dolores Aguirre breeding estate.

Navarra Hospital reported one man was gored in his left leg, another bruised his right leg and one had a slight face injury as runners jostled, tripped and fell alongside the bulls on their way to the bullring.

Two bulls became disoriented once inside the crowded ring at the end of the run and caused a scare as they raced around, scattering runners before arriving at the final corral.
