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.LONDON - The human rights organisation Amnesty International has voiced its concern at the disappearance of a prominent Libyan dissident, writes Charles Richards. Mansur Kikhiya, a former foreign minister, has not been seen since leaving a Cairo hotel on Saturday morning.
Amnesty fears he may have been abducted by Libyan government agents and possibly taken back to Libya. On Sunday, the Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi urged that 'stray dogs' - the term used for the opposition - be hunted down.
