to their home. some without homes to richard to us spending the night in the open air. many off hang great at wondering why they're receiving no help from the government. other than the handouts, the policy is being bringing along every now and then in the last hour or 2, but not a case. of course, he's not be happy center of this quite that lies 70 kilometers to the south west of here, across the high atlas mountains, with rescue efforts are still very much ongoing. the death toll rising and some areas have yet to be reached. is mindful the casualty, toll is fast rising as americans begin the hot breaking duty of varying that the 6.8 magnitude as quick as the worst to hit the region. you know, over a 100 use the water. well, we cannot go back home because of the danger of collapse. it fell completely. i have 2 kids, 4 and 5 years old, still younger, so he's the provider for the kids,

the family as well as for his mother and nephews, a. but as some bid, the final good byes, others are in the race against time to reach somebody who goes under the rubble. the international federation of the red cross says the next 48 to 72 hours will be crucial. but it's no easy task, especially in isolated mountain is communities. such a rescue efforts will be absolutely prioritized in power, lot of calls with making sure that those that did survive all taken care of in terms of that basic needs. government officials are among the able bodied volunteers involved in search and rescue efforts. the injured and the trapped kind of the hope that help is on the way the shoes of homes outside blood donation centers throughout the roku. how about a who's who we are all brothers? these are difficult times and this is why we came here. this is the least we can do

when it's really quite difficult to get a broad picture of the extent of that health where it's being deployed and where it is. and frankly, how much of footage that comes to us 5 sources on using it. most of these to show clearly that some government implemented results is being used in rescue efforts in some of those hot to reach areas of the outhouse. region 70 kilometers south west of here in the high atlas mountains, the epi sent to the region of this quite, but it's an enormous area. it is very rural and remote, and he's very mountainous. a lot of those mountain passes have been blocked by rock fools and quite simply impossible to reach one area code tell route don't, for instance, has not seen any help. a tool fixtures the show people using their hands to remove the rubble is really a desperate search and rescue effort. without any official assistance. the interior minister says the ministry says it's mobilized

o results. he's at his disposal. a ministry has been brought in to marshal and oversee the response using assets of air and land that's had a comp does at planes, drones, engineering unit search and rescue units. bobo, field hospitals, and so on as yet, the american government has not put out a distressful for international health despite international help being on standby and also from countries like ducky, like outside the u. a jordan and also open eyes. i liked the international federation of the red cross and the red crescent for the time being of the size of those are these trying to cope with this disaster as best they can, themselves. and donuts was pointing out to our view is that morocco has a history of us quakes. let me ask you to the country, have been better prepared. do you think are already just 24 hours into this disaster? those thoughts,

the questions are being honest and they may very well get loud. yes, this is a country that lives on a fault line across the opposite mountains. yes, it has a history of a lakes. on the one hand, the new build buildings in the city like medic, extra, pretty much on skype. so there's an argument that says that new building techniques of possibly saved lives here. but say happens in much more remote areas where dwellings with thought fall more valuable. and as you say, fried his ass good. quite look at the 2004. how jose, in the 600 people killed in that coastal city, thousands made homeless in 1960 a 5.8 magnitude quite killed. 15000 people in a good deal. so the history of us craig activity is certainly that. nothing just because this one and a 120 years. but one woman in this square said to me earlier, we all know that our homes of all new, but we've known that for years. no one's ever done anything about. all right, to join a how reporting live for us the from the historic city of maverick has jonah,

cox. this speaks uh to the partners of this uh, bar from the ours going that so that's really the for sure leaves and the uh about. uh, so when you're in the, in the, the going to me more than what the market, the, somebody finished when i ran a good to get your experience here uh on. i'll just say our summer. thank you very much indeed for talking to loud 0. thank you. let me think it was only my colleague elizabeth per on and spoke to the messiah about shaw me, a journalist and stock photography for north africa at the associated press. he explained what he, sol, as his team made its way to some effective areas. everyone could feel the building steak and many people rushed to the street late last night and spent significant amounts of the night on the street get up at the shop. um i like to joined the team and we headed towards the center passing by my cache in the morning as the

as nic mentioned, that the damage there was um, uh, not very significant. however, it was still sad to see some of the, sorry was um, uh, it shows some damage and the cracks and even some, some crumbling. but as we went closer to that, how is the region which uh, which has the highest uh, tall. uh i think scott, pretty desperate to really quickly. we arrive to abraham village and uh for about 6 hours that was non stop as monday being recovered or removed from under the rubble. okay. um it was a 5th uh a taken place. it was really uh, the scale of the, of the desperate and that was, that was difficult to pat them. people were very uh,

quiet in shock. and uh uh there was uh multiple burial prayers for thousands of people that were uh, that had their grace doug for them this afternoon. uh. moving on from will abraham . uh we moved to an okay town. what again and uh, is the same themes just a different uh, just in a different uh, geography. it was not the, it was not that hot mountainous region is actually next to a beautiful lake. but it's also very, very sad and very desperate for me to have to spend the last the, the last night in the cold but less and how does the americans send this out and form administer? he says, all thirties are responding quickly despite many challenges, a very, very strong earthquake in a place that is not known for being uh, active in terms of the quakes, its the high plus mountains. uh so uh, the in very different terrain where that is the center which is like the past and

which with mother cushion instead of the dentist called the ti, the teasing test boss. what about all of those villages which i just got again and, and uh, and the other, the usual cuts and all the others. so we, i mean, like i think the moroccan apologies out of just out of get monitoring the situation counting, did that seem uh the, the, the, the, the magnitude of the destruction that is happening around the risk you, when people are getting them to a lot of cash the, the, the hospitalization, modification which is the closest town. what's the closest city do you have given people there? i think that has been a call to give blood even in that, in my cache. because that a lot of people, a lot of enjoy the and i think that unfortunately 632 out of bed at a given the magnitude we would see i would like what, what brought me like, how many people like but i mean, i've trapped within that rather than wouldn't be rescued whether there would be live or out of that. but it's, it's confined,

although it has been settled in places like casablanca and robots and other places . but it's confined within a center, which is south east of america. so the other house province is the province that it is its most, but also when you cross the high mountains towards the south west through fine settles, then that's also come use on that either side of the mounts. as you texted to the east of the the what does is that area that are villages which are affected and towards the west, which the show problems dot effects. it's after the same uh, earthquake in 2004 has put together this kind of makeup land for erupted intervention whenever there is this guy and the thing. so uh, teams have been ready for any kind of uh thing. and this is the moments when did deployed that, so each province has its own kind of rest your logistics to deal with. first kind of situation. but there is also

a national intervention that is taking place in order to reach those people. without. gera has decided to open its s space to morocco, to allow the delivery of humanitarian and medical aid. the presidential office says it will lift a 2 year banum flights to its neighbors, to north african countries broke off ties in 2021 of them. a rock coast territorial kings to westminster. huh. but summer comes in from say they're worried about their family members back home. sure miss. how about i have my brothers doing dropbox and cause a blank country, my mother in law and i good their whole lives that have been touched. but fortunately on my side of the family, there was more fear than harm, which is found it, you know, have ownership of an hour before the earthquake. i spoke with my mother and everything was fine. then when we heard about the earthquake, we called the family and i got the or does needs called my mother. and she said to me, listen, everyones left their house is, they've all gone out to the street. well, that's bringing shame. i'll that address your joins us from brussels and belgium,

and she was on the phone to have brother. when the, off, the shock hit casablanca, actually, i'm a good to have you with a, so look you on the phone with your brother. he's in casablanca, when one of the off, the shock scientists down hit tell us what happened. they must a been terrifying or exactly were on the phone talking about random face and then out of a blue he was like, i think the rooms shaking and, and the gardens like explain what was exactly happening. he hung up and apparently he really had to flee outside. i couldn't reach him again. so i called another friend who eventually told me that an earthquake was going on. so people have to flee on the streets of children were there. it was very chaotic and then eventually i could talk to my brother again. he was doing fine, but a lot of people elsewhere in monarchist for example, were not so. so. so did he just just tell us what happens after he left his home?

what did he do? he just went on the streets and basically they started to look for open spaces spaces with a lot, not a lot of build buildings around. so they were asking each other what was happening, people were scrolling on social media to see if any news was reported yet. and then eventually he got the news that the epi sensor was uh, around uh, in the house area, which is in the high uplift mountains. and how's your brother been able to tell you? shame about the extent of the damage in casablanca, as well in color. blanca, it was quite minimal, so there was not a lot of damage in the area where he was. i called the other friends of mine which told me the same, but they were very cautious. so they basically, a lot of people slept outside just to make sure nothing another earthquake was following and they were quite scared actually,

because they didn't really trust the constructions and the buildings there were in . and what sort of help did your brother, another people who run outside of their homes? what sort of help and information were they getting from of properties off to the earth quite a bit. basically at the specific moment which was around 11 p. m. local time. it was basically only social media, so it was sweeter instagram. and we've been following local influencers to were sharing some news, but not much at the moment from the local authorities. and it hasn't been easy for you trying to, to get information about what's happening in casablanca and across morocco, more generally, as well. uh, at that moment, i've been following some pages on instagram and twitter um, from, yeah,

mclaughlin news channels. and they were quite fast in reporting what was happening . so for me it was quite easy. but for them i just left. so at the, at the specific signing cause of blanco. uh it was more difficult because there were issues with the internet as well. so people were realizing, after a certain time that the earthquake was happening, but where or when they should do wasn't really uh, very known. so i'm gonna get a final thoughts from you. i mean, your many thousands of miles away. they're in brussels, but, but i mean how, how easy or difficult do you think it's going to video? how difficult is it going to be? do you think full amount of test to recover from this week? i'm in the desktop, elizabeth and dramatically. the damage is extensive in many remote parts of the country. um do you think the country will cover from this? i hope so. i really hope so. i have a very strong connection with my country and i think a lot of milwaukee and residing abroad have so i really hope so. but from what i

see there is a very big slowly, very to within the american community from watkins residing in morocco, but also walk in community outside of morocco. i see a lot of move in from the international community as well. there's a lot of financial aid at the moment. there's a lot of volunteers going to morocco to help. so, i mean, the hope is very big and i really hope they can realize to recover the country very quickly. and especially marcus and the high up us mountains because they are yeah, it's heartbreaking. the images are very devastating. so i really hope so. yeah, yeah. all right, shame at home or i just thank you very much indeed for sharing your thoughts with our shame. i thank you. thank you. with any of my colleagues here with vonny, i spoke to funding for the city and who lives in mara, cash, and she should have experience with us. this has been a very, very stressful day. most of morocco hasn't left yet since yesterday. since

last night, we are in a state of shock, and most of us in a state of panic. words can describe what we're actually doing right now. we're. we've been caught off guard by this a catastrophe. we were not prepared. most of us never have experienced an earthquake before let alone of this magnitude. what have the last 24 hours been like for you? they have been stressful. scary. we have have to leave our homes, so i don't think anybody has slept in their house. last nights. everybody has been industries or in the residential area. sleeping on the grounds. are you going to sleep in your house tonight? then? do you feel comfortable being your house now? i mean safe. i do not feel comfortable being in my house, but i do believe that i will sleep in my house, hoping that nothing will happen because that is also something we're all hearing.

we're all scared that another aftershock gets and the same nightmare comes back again that we have to re live. it's again, once again. have you felt aftershocks today? i personally haven't spelt any aftershocks. i have failed to last night, but nothing today. nothing this morning. what are people in your neighborhood doing? are most people now back in their houses where you are? no, not everybody's back in their houses. a lot of people are still in the street lane down. people have got golf covers and they're leaving them all the streets. people are still outside, people are still very scared, and some people don't have their homes anymore. so some, don't have an option are. all right, let's also to come here and i'll just say are including latin american academy and countries agreed of a need to find new ways to tackle the war on drugs and rescue if it's increased. so continuing off to flash floods for hundreds of people from the more net savings

the the brought to you by visit capital is a change of type taking place. what was the that's ways of world thought through the central plains after the prairies of middle of kansas being pushed down to the way it's still hall to the buildings in pallets of texas and big further west. and he now resided, for example, that most of the attempts are coming down, and the consequences that there's been some pretty vicious storms in the midwest, particularly on the east inside these eastern states of the us have seen some very big sense of recently with flash flooding. to put out, in contrast, the pacific coast is that clark court rebecca to $33.00 in m a for example, but there's still plenty of shares for this. i have this is how it can lee not enough to category 5 anymore. what you'll feel the swell in for 3 car, for example, and possibly the british version of the ra share was anywhere from his spend. here

to get back to was mexico in dire and towards panama and beyond in columbia. that's correct, this time the, but some of them will still be pretty vicious that most of south america, the pictures allows you to drive on cuz surprisingly warm again, still near record inputs of dental. this is in the stage of i'm a zone us, which of course should be covered in green, lush, for so it surprised that see quite so hold for the science and the se, and visit and particularly where it's been. where recently the full coffee is no, i'm much dry one to the quote to you by visit castle imprisoned without trying to i'll just say a richard unless remain behind bars in egypt. the hot wood didn't seem detained since february 2020. the drop yet a ship detained since august 2021 which is the recalls for the

immediate release of its gentlest, detained in egypt. journalism is not a crime. the book about took them at about 12 stories here. this hour more than 2000 people have been killed in morocco in the west country can move in a 100 years. the magnitude of 6 point, a tremor struck light on friday night. while it may just search and rescue operation is continuing troops and emergency services of scrambled to reach remote mountain villages. but people are still trapped. new off even more off has continued to experience fear in the optimize of the place. many victims i've been sleeping on the street south of the government for them against returning to that
