Sept 2001 Attacks

A breakthrough in DNA analysis is helping identify more victims of the Sept 11, 2001, attacks in New York, but the scientific advance is of little consolation for families of those whose remains may have been buried in a Staten Island landfill

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, wrote a letter to President Barack Obama in 2015 that accused the United States of bringing the attacks upon itself, calling them a "natural reaction" to "destructive policies."

Americans commemorated the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on Sunday with the recital of the names of the dead, tolling church bells and a tribute in lights at the site where New York City's massive twin towers collapsed.
