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.

Quito - Ecuador has agreed to have two former presidents, Jimmy Carter of the United States and Oscar Arias of Costra Rica, try to arrange a ceasefire in its two-week border war with Peru, the government said.

There was no immediate response from Lima. Peru's President, Alberto Fujimori, said three of his country's war planes were shot down by Ecuador on Friday. AFP, Reuter
