CCTV reporter Li Chao: I am currently located in Marrakech, the third largest city in Morocco, which is also one of the cities most affected by the strong earthquake on the evening of the 8th local time. Not far behind me is Mohammed VI University Hospital. This hospital accommodates injured individuals from earthquakes in the local and surrounding areas of Marrakech. We visited the hospital and the hospital informed us that most of the injured have received proper treatment and have been discharged, while some critically ill patients are still waiting for further treatment in the hospital. This also indicates that the local situation in Morocco has been somewhat stable.
Some buildings in the old city of Marrakech have started renovation work
On the morning of the 13th, the reporter visited the old city of Marrakech in Morocco, which is the site of the World Heritage Site, for another follow-up visit. In the local area, the reporter saw that many buildings affected by the earthquake have started repair work.

Affected villages receive more rescue supplies, but large machinery still cannot enter remote villages
From the situation in rural areas, the reporter went to a village that was severely affected by the disaster on September 12th. On the morning of the 13th, local residents were also contacted again, and they stated that they had received more disaster relief supplies. However, at the same time, due to the impact of roads on large machinery, they were still unable to enter the village, so their housing has not been repaired or rebuilt.
In addition, because many houses completely collapsed in the earthquake, local residents are not sure if the geological environment is suitable for them to return to the village to live, so they are also considering whether to relocate as a whole to places outside the village. From this perspective, in rural areas far from cities, people still need more time to restore normal life.
