A detailed review of 9 & middot; 11 events in the United States

The "9 & middot; 11 attacks", also known as the "9 / 11 & lsquo;," 9 & middot; 11 terrorist attacks ", is a series of terrorist attacks on the world trade center in New York on September 11, 2001.

On the morning of September 11, 2001 (U.S. Eastern time), two airliners hijacked by terrorists crashed into building 1 of World Trade Center and building 2 of World Trade Center in New York, the U.S. respectively. The Pentagon's local structure was damaged and collapsed.

After the incident, troops across the United States were on top alert. Although the Taliban issued a statement saying that the terrorist incident had nothing to do with bin Laden, the U.S. government still identified bin Laden as the number one suspect in the terrorist attack [5]. On October 7, 2001, U.S. President George W. Bush announced the start of a military offensive against Afghanistan.

9 / 11 was the most serious terrorist attack in the United States, with a total of 2996 victims. Statistics on the property losses of the incident vary. The United Nations released a report saying that the economic losses of the terrorist attacks to the United States amounted to 200 billion US dollars, equivalent to 2% of the GDP of that year. The damage caused by this incident to the global economy even reached about $1 trillion.

The psychological impact of the incident on the American people is far-reaching, and their sense of economic and political security has been seriously weakened.
