"Tourists locked down in their hotels are among thousands of Britons at risk as deadly Hurricane Melissa batters Jamaica.

The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech, investigates political financials, and produces documentaries about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet does not use paywalls and solicits donations to fund journalists who report on multiple perspectives across the political spectrum. Hurricane Melissa is battering Jamaica, prompting government-ordered evacuations, shelter-in-place orders, and airport closures as the storm heads for landfall.

Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper warned of tens of thousands of dual nationals in Jamaica and urged British nationals to register with the Foreign Office.
