President Donald Trump is set to observe Friday’s 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks by attending a ceremony at the Pentagon, where attendees commemorate the lives lost when al-Qaida hijacked planes in 2001.
The attacks involved killings in three locations—New York and Washington, D.C., as well as at the Pentagon—where nearly 3,000 people die. The ceremony is expected to include remarks and a formal remembrance of victims and responders. While the outlets’ coverage centers on the same scheduled event and anniversary, they provide limited additional detail in the excerpts provided, with each focusing primarily on the president’s participation and the significance of the Pentagon site in the attacks’ aftermath.
