On September 8, a nearly 7-point earthquake ravaged Morocco. The epicenter of the earthquake was in a rural mountain area, an area with many small towns, where most of the buildings are simple, even made of mud and stones. Many of these houses have collapsed, and others have structural damage that makes them uninhabitable, so people are camping in makeshift tents. A partner in the country is responding with primary aid (food, shelter, medicine, etc.) and is also trying to obtain tents or materials with which to build them. They will also be working on sanitation to prevent diseases from spreading.
