King Charles III Pays Tribute at 9/11 Memorial During US Tour

Britain’s King Charles III visited the National September 11 Memorial in New York City on Thursday, a day after delivering a historic address to the U.S. Congress. The monarch paused at the twin reflecting pools, inscribed with the names of the nearly 3,000 victims of the 2001 attacks, and laid a wreath in honor of the lives lost. The visit underscores the enduring alliance between the United Kingdom and the United States, as King Charles continues his first state visit since ascending the throne.
