Overview

  • At Ground Zero, the National September 11 Memorial & Museum led the reading of names, six moments of silence beginning at 8:46 a.m., and the Tribute in Light at dusk.
  • President Donald Trump led a memorial at the Pentagon, while Vice President J.D. Vance attended the World Trade Center ceremony with Second Lady Usha Vance.
  • The FDNY recently added 39 firefighters who died of 9/11‑related diseases to its memorial wall, taking post‑attack firefighter deaths beyond 400, compared with 343 lost that day.
  • Officials said more than 1,000 victims from the World Trade Center attacks remain unidentified as forensic efforts continue.
  • Reporting recapped the NIST conclusion that aircraft impacts and subsequent fires caused the World Trade Center collapses, a standing rebuttal to conspiracy claims.
