New York City officials released documents concerning air quality assessments made in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks, with Mayor Zohran Mamdani stating the release shows victims were 'lied to' about the health impacts despite public assurances at the time that the air was safe. The records suggest internal concerns existed about potential health risks from the toxic dust and debris despite official reassurances. The disclosure comes as the 25th anniversary of the attacks approaches, with bereaved families describing ongoing agony a quarter-century later. Relatives say the trauma remains 'constantly on my mind,' compounded by the continued delay in bringing the alleged mastermind of the attacks to trial.
