The attack that marked and changed the world was that of the Twin Towers.

It was on 11 September 2001 when four planes were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists: two crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, causing the collapse of the towers and almost 3,000 casualties. A third plane crashed into the Pentagon and the fourth into Pennsylvania.

Despite the start of a real fight against terrorism, there has been no shortage of attacks over the years that have claimed numerous victims.
