Reacción a "Reactions: Earthquake hits Morocco, leaves hundreds dead"

Earthquakes in Morocco are not unusual, but this one is larger and close to the large city of Marrakesh. As with many other cities in the region, old buildings would not have any anti-seismic design, hence are very dangerous.

There is no connection with the recent Turkey earthquake.

The mountains where the earthquake occurred were a result of the African and the European plates crashing into each other and these forces produce earthquakes.
