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.

More than three out of every four Israelis want to see John Demjanjuk prosecuted for war crimes at Sobibor death camp, following his acquittal as 'Ivan the Terrible', according to a Gallup poll, AFP reports from Jerusalem.

Mr Demjanjuk was aquitted on appeal on 29 July of being the Treblinka gas-chamber operator and ordered expelled after five years on death row. But the Supreme Court agreed to hear petitions from Holocaust survivors to have him retried for his role as a Nazi SS auxiliary guard at Sobibor.
