On September 11, attacks occurred in New York that resulted in the death of 2,977 people. These attacks became one of the most tragic events in contemporary history.
The United States responded immediately to the attacks, launching a war on terror. This decision marked the beginning of a new era in American international policy.
The Al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden, was identified as responsible for organizing the attacks. His capture became one of the main objectives of the American administration in the following years.
Almost a decade after the attacks, Bin Laden was killed during an operation by American forces. This operation represented an important point in the fight against international terrorism.
