Even after 21 years and 2,977 fatalities in the World Trade Centre twin towers and Pentagon attacks on September 11, 2001, the main accused Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is still awaiting trial. The 9/11 attack happened when four commercial aircraft were hijacked by 19 Al-Qaeda terrorists, who also carried out assaults across the country.

The first two hijacked aircraft crashed into the World Trade Center twin towers in New York City, the third in Pentagon and the fourth&nbsp;headed for a federal facility in Washington, DC, crashed into a field instead.

Prior to Khalid's capture from his hideout in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, in March 2003, he was one of the most wanted terrorists.

The attack on 9/11 was carried out by Osama bin Laden's terrorist group, who trained the 19 individuals involved in the attack.

US: 9/11 attack mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed still awaits trial, victims wait for closure 

Even after 21 years, the memories of September 11, or 9/11, remain the same: bitter, horrific, and of one of the worst encounters a country has had with terrorists.

This all began when, on September 11, 2001, two aircraft attacked the World Trade Center in New York, and a third aircraft crashed outside of Washington, DC, into the Pentagon while the fourth went down in Pennsylvania.

Who did this? Al-Qaeda, an Islamic extremist organisation led by Osama bin Laden and known for its terror, hijacked four aircraft and used them as a means for suicide attacks in the United States. It was claimed that Laden provided funds for the attack.

The attack claimed the lives of over 3,000 people and injured thousands more.

Here are some facts you need to know about the 9/11 attack:

The CIA had informed President Clinton in his daily brief on December 4, 1998, that Laden was preparing to hijack US aircraft and was planning to conduct strikes.

The World Trade Centre was targeted earlier. On February 26, 1993, a bomb was placed in a car parked at the World Trade Centre, which when blasted claimed the lives of six people and injured over a thousand people. The Sunni terrorist, Ramzi Yousef, who deactivated the device, revealed that he intended to kill over 250,000 people, DNA reported.

The US tried multiple attempts to kill Osama bin Laden before 9/11, but was delayed and then revived, but was hampered by military leaders' reservations about relying on Aghan tribal chiefs.

An Orthodox Jewish university in New York was given temporary permission by the US Supreme Court to deny official recognition to an LGBTQ student group on Friday (September 9).

This permission comes after the university appealed to the court for an expedited ruling after a New York judge ordered the university to permit the Pride Alliance to form a student group, allowing them access to all services and facilities in the institute.

The university, in a statement, said, "As a deeply religious Jewish university, Yeshiva cannot comply with that order because doing so would violate its sincere religious beliefs about how to form its undergraduate students in Torah values," AFP reported.

In response to this statement, the Pride Group argued that the university also teaches various subjects other than religion and also has non-Jewish students. The group&nbsp;further added, "It may not deny certain students access to the non-religious resources it offers the entire student community on the basis of sexual orientation," AFP reported.

The group was formed in 2018 to hold meetings, organise lectures and participate in activities, and applied for its official recognition as a student group.

A new challenge is here on TikTok, and it is not good news for car owners in the United States. A number of cars have been stolen all around the country following a dangerous challenge on the social media app that asks teenagers to steal a specific type of cars using just a USB cord.

According to the police, the main target of the challenge are 2010-2021 Kia and Hyundai cars which still use mechanical keys and not electronic systems. It makes the cars more vulnerable to theft and the challenge asks the users on the app to take advantage of that and steal it using minimal tools.

In Los Angeles, the theft of Kia and Hyundai cars has gone up by almost 85 per cent in the last year while in parts of Florida, these cars account for around one third of all stolen cars. A similar trend can also be seen in Chicago and many other places in the country, CNBC reported.

The Biden administration has imposed fresh sanctions on Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security over what it called "malign cyber activity," as the two nations battle to find a way back into the 2015 nuclear deal.&nbsp;

The United States Treasury Department stated on Friday that the penalties were in reaction to a cyberattack in July that damaged official websites in Albania and was attributed to Tehran by Washington and Tirana.

“Iran’s cyber attack against Albania disregards norms of responsible peacetime State behavior in cyberspace, which includes a norm on refraining from damaging critical infrastructure that provides services to the public,” Treasury official Brian Nelson said in a statement.

“We will not tolerate Iran’s increasingly aggressive cyber activities targeting the United States or our allies and partners.”

Iran has deemed the claims that it was behind the event as "baseless," and the July cyberattack has led to a diplomatic crisis between Albania and <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/pentagon-halts-deliveries-of-f-35-jets-due-to-the-presence-of-a-chinese-alloy-513947">Iran</a>.

Iran considers Mujahedeen-e-Khalq (MEK) to be a "terrorist" organisation that intends to remove the Tehran government by force, while Albania, a NATO member, is where MEK is housed.

The sanctions on Friday, which also included Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib, were put in place a day after Washington imposed penalties on a number of Iranian businesses, alleging that they had a hand in the manufacture and transport of drones to Russia for the Ukraine War, as reported by Al Jazeera.&nbsp;

“The United States is committed to strictly enforcing our sanctions against both Russia and Iran and holding accountable Iran and those supporting Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine,” Nelson said on Thursday.

The targeted persons and businesses will have their assets in the US frozen as a result of the sanctions, and it will be forbidden for US citizens to conduct business with them.

Al Jazeera's request for comment on Friday was not immediately answered by Iran's UN mission. 
Since former President Donald Trump removed the United States from the nuclear agreement in 2018, the US government has increased sanctions against Iran.

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a multilateral agreement, saw Iran curtail its nuclear programme in return for the easing of international economic sanctions.

After the European Union produced a draught accord referred to as a "final text" last month, the pact's reinstatement seemed close.

The latest Iranian response, however, was rejected earlier this month as "not helpful" by US officials after Tehran and Washington exchanged remarks on the idea. Iran added that their response was "open" and appropriate in turn.

United States prosecutors said on Thursday that former president Donald Trump may not have returned all the classified documents in his possession despite FBI raiding his Mar-a-Lago residence on August 8. They said that it is possible that there are more such documents in other places owned by Trump and went on to call it a “a potential national security risk that needs investigation”.

The remarks were made in the latest filing from the Department of Justice in front of District Judge Aileen Cannon who ordered a “special master” to be appointed in order to impartially examine the documents found during the raid – a move that the DOJ has opposed from the very beginning.

The DOJ maintained their stance that Trump has removed a number of documents from the White House after his term ended and asked for permission to examine all of the 11,000 documents.

"This motion is limited to ... the seized classified records because those aspects of the order will cause the most immediate and serious harms to the government and the public," the filing stated.

In the detailed list of items found during the raid, the FBI listed 48 empty folders which were labelled “classified” and 42 which were “meant to be returned to either a staff secretary or military aide”.

While the DOJ was not certain, they hinted that more documents can be missing from the folders.

"Without a stay, the government and the public will also suffer irreparable harm from the undue delay to the criminal investigation," prosecutors wrote in the filing according to Reuters.

"The injunction against using classified records in the criminal investigation could impede efforts to identify the existence of any additional classified records that are not being properly stored - which itself presents the potential for ongoing risk to national security," they added.

It's a chance for us to continue improving our capabilities, he continued.

The equipment might stay in Amami for a few more months because there are two more joint training exercises planned for this year. It contains two High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS), which Washington has also handed to Ukraine to aid it in its conflict with Russia and are capable of firing projectiles as far as 500 km (310 miles).&nbsp;

As tensions with China over Taiwan rise, using training exercises like the recently concluded Orient Shield drill could be a simple and rapid option for Washington to redeploy some forces in East Asia, even if only briefly.

Camp Amami, which was inaugurated in 2019, is one of a number of military camps Japan is constructing on its southwest islands for anti-ship and anti-aircraft missile units in an effort to fend off any attack from China.&nbsp;

General Yoshihide Yoshida, the head of staff of the Japanese army, accompanied Flynn to Amami. His visit coincides with Tokyo's plans to strengthen its armed forces in response to what it perceives as an increasing threat from China and Russia following Moscow's attack on Ukraine.&nbsp;

It disclosed a plan to equip longer-range missiles last month as part of a significant increase in defence spending that will also raise funding for joint exercises with American soldiers.

Morning news brief: Final suspect in Canada stabbing dies, US accuses Moscow of war crimes, & more

As tensions with China over its claims to the autonomous island remain high, a second legislative delegation from the US is currently in Taiwan.&nbsp;

Since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit in early August, a continuous stream of Americans has been to Taiwan to meet with government representatives.&nbsp;

Since then, China has increased its military intimidation of Taiwan by routinely sending warships, bombers, and even drones toward the island.&nbsp;

On Thursday, the eight-person, nonpartisan group will speak with Tsai Ing-wen, the president of Taiwan.

It is led by Stephanie Murphy, a Florida Democrat who is one of the legislators who introduced a bill that would permit the US to lend arms to Taiwan in support, similar to a bill that was enacted to lend weapons to Ukraine. The Biden administration gave its approval last week to a USD 1 billion arms deal with Taiwan.&nbsp;

The other guests are Republican Scott Franklin of Florida, Democrat Kaiali'i Kahele of Hawaii, Republican Joe Wilson of South Carolina, Republican Andy Barr of Kentucky, Republican Darrell Issa of California, Republican Claudia Tenney of New York, and Republican Kat Cammack of Florida.

The US government's highest-ranking official to visit Taiwan in 25 years was Pelosi. In retaliation, China conducted extensive military drills that included launching missiles over the island and deploying ships through the Taiwan Strait's middle, which had previously served as a demilitarised zone between the two sides. The missiles made some landings in the exclusive economic zone of Japan.&nbsp;

High-level international trips to the island are viewed as interference in Chinese affairs and a tacit acknowledgement of Taiwanese sovereignty by China. Some believed that China's recent military exercises were a practice run for upcoming military action against the island, which US military leaders fear could happen in the next few years.

A US senator, another congressional delegation, as well as government representatives from Japan and Palau, visited Taiwan after Pelosi's visit. Additionally, the governors of Arizona and Indiana paid trips with an emphasis on semiconductors, a sector that Taiwanese firms dominate.&nbsp;

Politicians from the US have described their visits as a gesture of support for Taiwan and democracy.
