Today Marks 20 Years Since September 11th Attacks
Commemorations have been taking place in the US today, as the country marks the 20th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks.
Nearly 3,000 people were killed in the series of attacks exactly 20 years ago today.
US President Joe Biden was joined by his predecessors Barack Obama and Bill Clinton at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York for the first of a series of ceremonies.
The ceremony at ground zero was started by a choir singing the American national anthem, followed by a minute's silence.
The relatives of the victims are reading out the names of every person who lost their lives, while bells tolled at the exact moment the planes hit the Twin Towers.
Other events are due to take place in Washington and Pennsylvania later today
