A 6.5-magnitude earthquake in the north-east of Morocco. Click here for original story.
The powerful quake hit at 2.30 this morning. The most affected place is the coastal town of Al-Hoceima, but villages in the remote area to the south, in the foothills of the Rif mountains, have suffered more damage and casualties. Much of the destruction can be blamed on earthquake-vulnerable adobe dwellings. The army has been sent in to help.
