September 11, 2001, also known as 9/11, was a terrorist attack carried out by the Islamic extremist group Al-Qaeda against the United States. Four planes were hijacked by terrorists, with two planes flown into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City and one plane flown into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, was headed towards Washington D.C. but crashed into a field in Pennsylvania after passengers tried to overpower the hijackers.

The attacks resulted in the deaths of 2,977 people, including civilians, first responders, and the hijackers themselves. The destruction of the Twin Towers caused significant damage to the surrounding area and resulted in the collapse of several nearby buildings. The attacks also had a significant impact on the United States' foreign policy, leading to the launch of the War on Terror and the U.S. military invasion of Afghanistan.

The events of September 11, 2001, had a profound impact on the world, and the day has been designated as a national day of remembrance in the United States. The attacks are remembered as a tragic and significant event in U.S. history, with many memorials and tributes created to honor the victims and first responders.
