A devastating 6.8-magnitude earthquake rocked Morocco on Friday, September 8, 2023, shortly after 23:00. Less than 14 hours later, the quake already claimed over 1,000 lives, making it the most lethal earthquake the North African nation has experienced in over 120 years.
Most of the fatalities occurred in the province of Al Haouz, situated west of the quake's epicenter and south of the famed city of Marrakech. Marrakech, a hub of economic and cultural activities, is frequented by tourists from around the globe.
Its epicenter was pinpointed in the High Atlas mountains, roughly 72 kilometers (45 miles) southwest of Marrakech, a city with a population nearing 840,000. Marrakech's renowned historic walls, which date back to the early 12th century, its signature mosque, and its landmark areas sustained significant damage.
Global and local rescue efforts face challenges accessing some of the worst-hit areas due to road obstructions caused by debris from centuries-old buildings and mountainous terrain.
