Summary. It was 11:11 p.m. on September 8 when an earthquake measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale was recorded in Morocco, the most powerful ever recorded in the region. The earthquake, whose epicenter is located in the province of Al-Haouz, southwest of Marrakech, sweeps away houses, buildings and even destroys entire villages in a few minutes.
In the hours that followed, residents organized in the middle of the night to help the injured and survivors trapped under the rubble. In some remote mountain villages, roads are damaged by landslides and help is struggling to arrive. In Talat N’Yaaqoub, one of these villages, located closest to the epicenter of the earthquake, not a single house is left standing. On the spot, inanimate bodies are extracted from the rubble.
For Code source, Timothée Boutry, Laura Wojcik and Christel Brigaudeau, journalists at Le Parisien and special envoys to Morocco the day after the earthquake, recount the scenes of desolation and their meetings with residents still in shock.
