At a ceremony in New York marking the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, family members of the victims have begun reading the names of those who died.

Silence spread across New York at 8:46 a.m. -- the time when American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center a decade ago.

The city observed another moment of silence at 9:03 a.m., when United Airlines Flight 175 struck the South Tower.

More than 200 miles away in Washington, mourners will observe a moment of silence at 9:37 a.m. -- the moment American Airlines Flight 77 struck the Pentagon and killed 184 people.

And at 10:03 a.m., silence will fall on Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where passengers aboard United Airlines Flight 93 thwarted a hijacking plot and crashed the plane into the ground.

The attacks killed 2,977 people. Ref. CNN
