US President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden will travel to all three sites of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, marking the 20th anniversary of the deadly day.

The President and first lady will visit New York City, Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia.

Vice President Kamala Harris and second gentleman Doug Emhoff will travel to Shanksville, the site of the United Flight 93 crash, for a separate event, before joining the President and first lady at the Pentagon.

Last year, Biden visited the 9/11 memorial in New York before visiting the memorial in Shanksville.

The White House has not said yet if Biden will make remarks.
