STORYLINE:
New York City has marked the anniversary of the 1993 bombing at the old World Trade Center, when Islamic extremists made their first attempt at bringing down the twin towers.
Six people, including a pregnant woman, died in the Feb. 26 blast. Relatives of the victims gathered on the Trade Center’s memorial plaza Wednesday to lay flowers and read the names of their lost loved-ones.
A bell tolled at 12:18 p.m. to mark the time of the attack. Earlier in the day, The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey held a memorial Mass for the victims at a Manhattan church.
The authority owns the Trade Center site and lost four employees in the 1993 attack.
