More than 48 hours have passed since Morocco was struck by its most devastating natural disaster in decades. Friday's earthquake, the country's deadliest in 60 years, struck below villages in the High Atlas mountains south of Marrakesh. More than 2,100 people have died and more than 2,421 are injured, many critically. The 6.8-magnitude tremor left homes collapsed, roads blocked and entire villages destroyed.
