September 5, 2026, Malibu, California, USA: Hundreds of volunteers gather at Alumni Park at Pepperdine University to raise nearly 3,000 flags in honor of the lives lost to the terrorist attack on the United States on September 11, 2001. The flags also include national flags for each foreign country that lost a citizen in the attack. The Waves of Flags memorial will remain in place along Pacific Coast Highway until September 18, 2026. (Credit Image: © Brian Cahn/ZUMA Press Wire) #zumapress #journalism #september11 #americanflags
