25 years after 9/11 attack, US panel demands fresh security reforms

Twenty-five years after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the United States House Committee on Homeland Security has called for a fresh round of security reforms, issuing more than 20 recommendations covering intelligence-sharing, terrorism prevention, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, border security and emergency preparedness.

The committee made the recommendations in a report released Thursday as the United States prepares to mark the 25th anniversary of the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people after four airliners slammed into the World Trade Center in New York. The report, titled "25th Anniversary Report: National Security Improvements and the Domestic Threat Landscape 25 Years After 9/11/01," assesses the progress made in strengthening US homeland security since the attacks and examines the threats facing the country today.
