Flooding Brings Widespread Displacement in Northern Morocco

Devastating floods have swept across northern Morocco, prompting authorities to evacuate over 140,000 people from flood-prone areas in Larache and Sidi Kacem provinces. The country's unique geography makes it prone to severe weather events.

Thousands of residents have been left stranded in their homes, while many more have been forced to flee on foot or by air. The situation is dire, with families struggling to access basic necessities like food, water, and shelter.

International aid is pouring in, with neighboring countries and global organizations offering support to help with relief efforts.
