The Independent dispatches reporters to cover reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, investigates entities such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and produces documentaries like 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet keeps reporting free of paywalls and solicits donations to fund on-the-ground journalism. In Dresden, a 20-year-old Syrian suspect turned himself in after a wanted notice in connection with a tram knife attack that wounded a 20-year-old American. The victim intervened when two men harassed a woman and sustained facial wounds. The U.S. Embassy urged German authorities to bring perpetrators to justice; a first suspect was briefly detained but initially released for lack of prosecutorial grounds.
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.
A second suspect was arrested Friday over a knife attack last weekend on a tram in the German city of Dresden in which an American man was wounded, authorities said. The suspect, a 20-year-old Syrian, turned himself in to police hours after a wanted notice was issued for him, police and prosecutors said in a statement. They said that he was arrested in a suburban Dresden square after calling the police emergency number and telling police where he was.
The victim, a 20-year-old American, was attacked just after midnight on Sunday while the tram was at a stop. Police have said that he intervened when two men harassed a woman on board the tram and was then attacked himself before the men fled, sustaining facial wounds. The U.S. Embassy in Berlin condemned the brutal attack in a post Monday on social network X. We urge German authorities to swiftly bring the perpetrators to justice and punish them to the fullest extent permitted by law,
