A series of events on both sides of the Atlantic is being held to mark 25 years since 9/11. In Central London, the Changing of the Guard ceremony is taking place to commemorate a quarter-century since the tragedy, in which 67 Britons were killed. trib.al/eU9rxDR

At 10:28 a.m. on September 11, 2001, the North Tower fell. Twenty-five years later, we remember. #NeverForget

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. As a mark of respect, we will fly our flags at half-mast from sunrise to sunset to honour those who lost their lives in the attacks. While reflecting on the tragedy of every life lost, as a service it's important that we take a moment to honour the emergency service workers who sacrificed their own lives to respond in service, including 343 firefighters. Never forget.

#WeRemember the 343 firefighters who lost their lives in the 9/11 terror attacks, 25 years ago today. Many more firefighters have since suffered from diseases likely linked to toxic substances present at ground zero. Today, Firefighters will observe a minute's silence at 13.46 – the time in the UK when the first plane impacted the North Tower of the World Trade Center.

Remembering Sub-Officer Paul Metcalf who sadly died in the line of duty as he tried to save student Reyaz Ali from the lake in Holcombe Brook in Bury today in 1999 @fbunational – at Manchester, England

Our thoughts are with the firefighters in hospital with injuries caused by the Stourbridge wildfire. This is one of the most challenging periods for our members since the Blitz. We will continue fighting for more firefighters, proper PPE, and resources to keep our members safe.

The Government has issued a UK-wide temporary ban on the sale of disposable barbecues due to their wildfire risk amid the ongoing heatwaves. Read their full statement here👇themanc.com/news/government-…

Imagine fighting a wildfire under the blazing sun, with ground temperatures of 100°C, while wearing a ski jacket. Dorset and Wiltshire firefighters are at risk of severe heat exhaustion, responding to the New Forest fire in their heavy, padded structural PPE.

🔥 A disposable BBQ left in a bin caused a fire that could easily have spread beyond the container and into surrounding vegetation. Please pack a picnic, not a BBQ. Disposable BBQs can stay hot long after use and pose a serious wildfire risk. #LILIY

In 35 years service I’ve never experienced such a protracted period of high demand & call volume. Today, just one example, we had two 8🚒 moorland fires and a 7🚒 building fire all running simultaneously alongside BAU. So proud of everyone at @manchesterfire and @NW_Fire_Control
Spent yesterday riding no.5 on Gorton’s first pump 🚒 A very…very busy day..! attending incidents across the city. Seeing first hand how firefighters are responding to what is an exceptionally busy period @manchesterfire is impressive. Thank you White Watch for your hospitality.
