Four days ago, on September 8, a powerful magnitude-7.0 earthquake struck Morocco at 11:11 p.m., sending shockwaves through the night. 🌙💥
The quake, which hit at a depth of 18.5 km, has tragically taken at least 2,901 lives. Rescue teams are tirelessly working to reach the hardest-hit remote areas, battling boulder-strewn roads and challenging conditions. 🏚️🚑
This disaster marks Morocco's most severe earthquake since 2004, when a magnitude-6.3 tremor devastated the port city of Al Hoceima, resulting in around 630 fatalities. The current situation remains dire as the death toll is expected to rise. Our thoughts are with all those affected. 💔🙏
