This past Friday, September 8, Morocco experienced a devastating 6.8 magnitude earthquake that has left 3,000 dead thus far, as well as 5,500 injured across the North African nation. The epicenter of the quake hit at the rural town of Ouka\u00efmedene, just 50 miles southwest of the capital city of Marrakech, with some estimates stating the shockwaves were felt as far as Portugal and Spain. <\/p>\n
