Morocco Earthquake: UN Stands Ready to Support Relief Efforts
The UN chief expressed his profound sadness over the deadly earthquake that struck central Morocco late on Friday night which latest media reports say has killed over 2,000 people, and left well over 1,000 seriously injured. Mr. Guterres declared his solidarity with the Government and people of the country.
The UN is by your side!
9 September 2023
In a statement issued by his Spokesperson, Secretary-General António Guterres stressed that the UN was ready to assist the Government in any way needed, to help those impacted.
According to the UN humanitarian hub Reliefweb, the powerful quake struck shortly after 10pm local time, measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale at a depth of 18.5 km, with the epicentre located in the High Atlas mountains, some 71 km southwest of the historic city of Marrakech.
According to media reports, several houses in the city of 840,000 collapsed and other buildings suffered structural damage. The epicentral zone is not densely populated.
“The Secretary-General was profoundly saddened to learn of the earthquake that hit Morocco today which claimed many lives,” the statement read.
Mr. Guterres addressed his most sincere condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy recovery to the injured.
In a tweet, the President of the UN General Assembly, Dennis Francis, offered his heartfelt sympathy and condolences, calling on the international community "to stand together in support of Morocco in this time of sorrow."
Amina Mohammed, the UN Deputy Secretary-General, also responded on social media platform X, saying that her "prayers and thoughts" are with the people of Morocco.

Rest assured beloved of Humanity -
"Heaven" did welcome each precious
Soul now safely returned to "ETERNITY!"
May those who are injured

is needed for medicinal healings
and set upon a sure path of holistic
recovery knowing always that the
"Whole Family of Humanity"
"Around the World"
mourns with comforting prayers -
bonded always together with you as "One!"
GOD. The Country. The King.
