The USA commemorates the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the two skyscrapers in New York and the Pentagon in Washington on Friday. Nearly 3000 people were killed in the attacks. The commemoration will follow a familiar pattern observed annually since 2001. All those who perished will have their names read aloud, and flowers and wreaths will be laid in their memory. Fighter jets will perform a flyover of New York, and moments of silence will be observed throughout the day. The nation reflects on the profound impact of the September 11th attacks and honors the victims and heroes.
