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.

FBI agents have been sent to Pakistan in connection with the killings of four American oil company employees, the US Attorney General Janet Reno said.

She declined to comment when asked if the killings might have been linked to the recent US conviction of a Pakistani, Mir Aimal Kasi, for murdering two CIA employees in 1993. She also declined to declare the killings a terrorist act.

Gunmen in Karachi killed four American men and their Pakistani driver on Wednesday. Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif yesterday gave President Bill Clinton his condolences.
