Twenty-five years ago, four hijacked planes struck targets in the United States, causing one of the greatest tragedies in modern history. The September 11, 2001 attacks resulted in thousands of deaths and profoundly transformed world geopolitics.

This audio episode explores the sounds of that day, gathering original recordings that captured the moments of the attack. The sonic narrative allows one to relive the experience of those who lived through those events.

The story is told through the perspective of a reporter who was in New York during the attacks. This professional witnessed the events in the city firsthand.

After the attacks, the same reporter went on to Afghanistan and subsequently to Iraq, covering the conflicts that arose as a direct consequence of the September 11 events.
