25 years after September 11: The world remembers the victims

172
The USA holds big memorial events today. It is the 25th year after the terror attacks. Back then, almost 3.000 people die. US President Donald Trump visits an event at the Pentagon. In New York, people read names of the dead. Many drones paint lights in the sky. The lights show the old twin towers in real size.

Other countries also remember this day. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese gives a speech. He honors the courage of the helpers. Austrian Chancellor Christian Stocker calls the day a turning point. He stresses the value of freedom and law. Austria rejects all forms of terror. People who break the laws face punishment.

Many people still suffer from the consequences today. Back then, toxic dust fills the air. Authorities report over 57.000 cancer cases from this dust. New York now remembers these victims too. The number of sick people is very high. It is higher than the number of dead people on that day. The world stands firmly with the survivors.
