    Sounds horrendous. There seems to be a lot of Rural areas hard to reach

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Over 2,000 dead and tremors of magnitude 4.5 in Marrakesh this morning.

    Absolute carnage.

    Just awful :(, earthquakes must be the worst type of natural disaster there is...

    But I find it a bit strange that they the government is refusing some international aid? Their stated reason doesn't make sense to me :/

    Morocco's government is under pressure to accept more international aid, as rescuers battle with exhaustion.

    So far, it has accepted help from only four countries - Spain, the UK, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

    Officials defended the response, and said it would be too chaotic if teams from around the world suddenly arrived in Morocco.
