  1. My God, how terrible!
    Heartbreaking…😢😢
    Utrerly heartbreaking…

  2. Believe in climate change or they're gonna keep creating more disasters, we need your blind compliance, without question this time.

  3. I live in Portugal and felt a slight sway to the building I live in (at just a couple minutes after the earthquake hit). I looked on the news and we did get a small earthquake from this terrible earthquake in Morocco. I feel so bad for the people.

  4. May ALLAH TAHALA save all muslims by HIS MERCY. ameen suma ameen

  5. Prayers to you all from phx az america…my condolences ❤

  6. The building material made this so so so much worse, this is horrific and 💔 prayers for Marrakech and Morocco.

  7. They are exercising population control.

  8. Keeping them all in prayer 🙏🏼 from: Juneau Alaska

  9. Prayers God gives them strength to carry on…
    No one is alone, God is with them…

  10. The centuries old tradition of mud brick buildings and the use of clay bricks without reinforcement was unfortunately the major cause of the high death toll. So tragic for these people who could not afford earthquake resistant housing.

  11. It will be more then 5 thousand once the dust settles in.

  12. لاحول ولا قوة إلا بالله العلي العظيم

  13. Wow. Im pretty tuff. But seeing that man lost his wife daughters and baby made me cry. And his home. You can see he's thin from working hard. Brutal brutal tragedy.

  14. How old was the wall around the city? If it stood until now.the quake over a hundred years ago must have been weaker.Yes?

  15. It's a disaster as a Moroccan، thanks for the support❤❤
