The accompanying script reads:

The 9/11 Terrorist Attacks.

This is a fragment of one of two airliners hijacked by
Al-Qaeda terrorists and flown into the World Trade Center
in New York City on 11 September, 2001. Terrorists crashed
a third plane into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.
Passengers aboard a fourth aircraft fought the hijackers,
who crashed the plane in a Pennsylvania field.
