U.S. Marks 25th Anniversary of Sept. 11 Attacks
Communities are holding ceremonies, vigils and student-led remembrances as about 100 million Americans are too young to remember Sept. 11, museum officials said.
- On Friday, September 11, 2026, Americans marked the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks with ceremonies at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, honoring the 2,977 people killed.
- Nineteen al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four commercial airliners in 2001, crashing two into the World Trade Center's Twin Towers, one into the Pentagon, and one into a Pennsylvania field, killing 2,977 people in the deadliest terrorist attack in United States history.
- Beyond the initial loss, more than 9,400 people have died from illnesses linked to toxic dust exposure since the attacks, according to federal health programs that continue providing medical care to survivors and first responders.
- Vice President JD Vance joined former presidents Joe Biden, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton at Ground Zero, while President Donald Trump attended the Pentagon observance; New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's attendance drew criticism from some political opponents.
- The anniversary shifts educational focus toward a new generation of approximately 100 million Americans too young to remember the attacks, while 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed still awaits trial 23 years after his capture.
