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.

Sixteen teams in two pools play each other home and away, with the final round of matches on 24 February. The top four from each pool qualify for the quarter-finals, with the 'Final Four' in Tel Aviv from 19-21 April.

CHARLES BARKLEY, the member of the United States 'Dream Team' who collapsed in training with the Phoenix Suns at the weekend, hopes to play again this Friday. Barkley, the National Basketball Association's Most Valuable Player last season, complained of numbness in his legs.
