STORYLINE:
There were celebrations at Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate, following the attacks on the Trade Centre and the Pentagon.
Palestinian men, women and children chanted in jubilation after terrorists crashed two planes into the World Trade Center causing them to collapse on Tuesday morning.
Within the hour, an aircraft crashed on a helicopter landing pad near the Pentagon, and the White House, the Defense Department and the Capitol were evacuated.
It was not immediately known how many people were killed.
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat called the attack a “terrible incident,“ sending his condolences to the people of the United States.
Authorities had been trying to evacuate those who work in the twin towers, but many were thought to be trapped.
About 50-thousand people work at the Trade Center.
