Joe Biden to attend ceremonies in New York, Pennsylvania and at Pentagon in memory of the 2,977 killed by al-Qaida hijackers
America is mourning the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington that killed nearly 3,000 people and helped shape the 21st century.
Joe Biden is due this morning to join families of the victims at three separate locations in what he may have hoped would prove a rare moment of national unity. But anger at the US president’s recent botched withdrawal from Afghanistan is still raw.
