We prove a Diophantine approximation inequality for rational points in varieties of any dimension, in the direction of Vojta's conjecture with truncated counting functions. Our results also provide a bound towards the $abc$ conjecture which in several cases is subexponential. The main theorem gives a lower bound for the truncated counting function relative to a divisor with sufficiently many components, in terms of the proximity to an algebraic point. Furthermore, we show that the Lang-Waldschmidt conjecture implies a special case of Vojta's conjecture with truncation in arbitrary dimension. Our methods are based on the theory of linear forms in logarithms and a geometric construction.
