# The United States is marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people in 2001. Ceremonies are being held in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, with victims’ names read out and moments of silence observed. A new moment of silence has been added this year to remember people who later died from illnesses linked to exposure to toxic dust after the attacks. President Donald Trump is attending a ceremony at the Pentagon, while families and survivors continue to honour those lost.
