Rescue teams in Europe are frustrated that Morocco did not throw open its doors to more outside assistance after last week's deadly earthquake
People and dogs dig through the rubble of a home that was damaged by an earthquake, in the village of Tafeghaghte, near Marrakech, Morocco, Monday, Sept. 11, 2023. Rescue crews expanded their efforts on Monday as the earthquake's death toll continued to climb to more than 2,400 and displaced people worried about where to find shelter. The text-message alert came in the middle of the night: A massive earthquake had hit Morocco.
Aid groups in Europe are frustrated that Morocco did not throw open its doors to outside assistance asdid for a devastating quake in February. Quickly grasping the vast scale of the disaster, Turkey within hours appealed for international help, which enabled rescue crews from 90 countries to pull hundreds of people out alive.
After the latest temblor, the Interior Ministry cautioned that poorly coordinated aid “would be counterproductive.” "If there is aid, it will be later," he added. “In any case, for those people who are impatient to help, there will be enough work for everyone.” Fraisse acknowledged that dozens of well-meaning search teams arriving together from overseas could have been overwhelming. And he noted that other countries have also rejected help from rescue teams like his, including Armenia in 1988.
