Americans to mark 25 years since September 11 attacks amid enduring grief, reflection

Names of the 2,977 victims will be read, and officials say 9/11-related illnesses have claimed more than 9,400 additional lives.

  • Americans are gathering across the nation to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, honoring the 2,977 victims killed at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
  • Ceremonies at Ground Zero in New York City are featuring the traditional reading of the victims' names by family members and seven distinct moments of silence marking the plane impacts, tower collapses, and 9/11-related illnesses.
  • President Donald Trump is scheduled to deliver remarks and lead a wreath-laying ceremony at the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial in Virginia, while Vice President JD Vance joins former presidents in Manhattan.
  • The milestone anniversary brings heightened focus on long-term consequences, as New York City officials recently released over 170,000 archived documents regarding post-9/11 air quality and health concerns for first responders and survivors.
  • Tributes across major sites are paired with national community service initiatives, light displays including a planned 2,977-drone show over New York Harbor, and solemn bells of remembrance at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania.
