As the nation prepares to mark the 25th anniversary of the devastating 9/11 attacks, a poignant addition has been made to the annual commemoration ceremony. For the first time in seven years, a moment of silence will be dedicated to the victims of the 2001 World Trade Center bombing. The seventh moment of silence will honor the 184 people who lost their lives in the 1993 attack, which was a precursor to the larger tragedy that unfolded on September 11, 2001. The expanded ceremony is a testament to the ongoing efforts to remember and honor all those affected by the tragic events of that day.
