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.

Shepherds defending ancient grazing and migration rights guide sheep through a city square during the annual parade in Spain. Palestinians inspect the rubble of destroyed buildings following Israeli airstrikes in southern Gaza Strip. Chinese astronauts attend a send-off ceremony for their manned space mission in northwestern China. And in sports, Afghanistan captain Hashimatullah Shahidi celebrated their win against Pakistan during the Cricket World Cup match in India.

The selection was curated jointly by AP photo editors Aaron Jackson in New York and Subramoney Iyer in New Delhi.
