Along with photographer Bruce Rollinson and feature writer John Woodcock, Andrew Vine was dispatched to New York by The Yorkshire Post to cover the aftermath of the worst terrorist attack in history.
Bruce captured this set of harrowing images in the days after the attack. In our Saturday Special here, we remember the victims and look back, 25 years on.
