Jamal Rbaki, 36, who lost both his parents in the earthquake, stands amongst the rubble of where their house once stood, in the aftermath of a deadly earthquake in Talat N'Yaaqoub, in Morocco September 12, 2023. Morocco's military is spearheading the rescue efforts and army personnel and emergency workers have been present in Talat N'Yaaqoub for days. Most people in Talat N'Yaaqoub felt as if the authorities were rejecting them, he said. When the earthquake struck, Rbaki was in Marrakech, the historic city 72 km (45 miles) away from the epicentre of the tremor. It took him 12 hours to travel around 100 km from there to Talat N’Yaaqoub.

TALAT N'YAAQOUB, Morocco, Sept 11 (Reuters) - About to return to school, seven-year-old Suleiman Aytnasr had been carried to his bedroom to ensure a good night's rest after he had fallen asleep in the living room. But Brahim was unable to reach Suleiman. "We thank God that our other sons are still alive." "There is a lot of suffering but we thank God for everything," he said. On Monday, the Moroccan army briefly visited Brahim's hamlet, surveying the damage as helicopters flew over.
