25 years ago, the world watched live one of the most significant events of the 21st century. The September 11, 2001 attacks left a deep mark on global collective memory, forever changing the way the world perceived security and international relations.

The images of the burning Twin Towers became universal symbols of that tragedy. Captured by millions of viewers through the media, these images documented moments of horror and despair experienced on that fateful day.

The rescue operations were also extensively documented, showing the heroic efforts of firefighters, police officers, and emergency professionals who risked their lives to save victims from the rubble.

In the days following the attacks, the images continued to make history, documenting a nation's mourning and the consequences that extended for years. These photographs and videos became permanent memory of one of the most traumatic events of the modern era.
