7:07 pm
what they're doing is walking to villages that are more accessible or using donkeys and bringing it here or what was the hospitality. you know, most of them, even in times of tragedy, we are offering out the key and not not. so we're being taken into the village. this is a community that depended on agriculture, telling us everything. everything has gone. this village, buried age people, there are advantage of 70 and the destruction is uh it's a month or they are very synchronized. i know this is where i lived with my patents
7:08 pm
and my mother was in that room. that's where she died along with my wife. and to think that this is one of countless villages in the middle of nowhere, hard to get to. how are they going to rebuild it? we just pumped into this gentleman tells us this is a, this is his home up there. okay. the, the, to so it's, i'm heard here and i'm heard here. well, obviously we need to rebuild all of this, but that's only possible it's help comes from uh, it's hard to remove all of this. stephanie decker all g 01015 in the atlas mountains of morocco. or several makeshift hospitals of in the setup to help families affected by the quaint houses here as hush them all of our visits had one of them in the town of asked me earlier my colleagues. so of on yes, spoke with him about the types of services that people are seeking. there is

7:10 pm
the thoughts of the ranked off to the quick to be able to cope with the growing number of the people who are likely to further move to this particular location. serial. another aspect of the story is basically most of these people happen now move to next. you come across this area that has been affected as they move and you're likely to see a growing number of patients move into this mid 3. so this makes it a minute to clinic. i assume i have to say the by the stand is other natural disasters. this looks like a really sophisticated and will run operation. i appreciate there were 6 days off to the quick now i wonder how the people are actually reaching this uh, this location of us and the are they being met of backed in? are they driving in? are they coming themselves? how is that working? so this is what is happening now. you remember the spot where what we're doing
