By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/the-fbi-showed-previously-unknown-photos-of-the-pentagon-on-september-11.htmlThe Federal Bureau of Investigation for the first time presented 27 photos of the Pentagon taken on September 11, 2001 — after a plane hijacked by terrorists crashed into the agency.
On that day, four groups of Al-Qaeda members hijacked four scheduled passenger planes. Five terrorists took control of American Airlines flight 77, en route from Washington to Los Angeles - at that moment the plane was over Eastern Kentucky. The airliner was turned back to Washington and attacked the Pentagon military department. As a result of this disaster, about 200 people were injured, and almost 3,000 from all the terrorist attacks of September 11.
The images released by the FBI show the wreckage of the plane, the Pentagon still burning and the work of the teams that extinguished the fire and dismantled the rubble.
