This is not the first fire to send shockwaves through Morocco in recent months. In August, a forest fire burned 470 Hectares of greenery near the city of Chefchaouen, in the north of Morocco. Local authorities worked for nearly three weeks to control the flames.
In the same month, a shocking video of a young girl trying to escape a burning apartment went viral. The incident happened in Sidi Allal Bahraoui, a town near Rabat. The footage shows Hiba, the little girl, trying desperately to escape the building by the window, but she was blocked by metal grills. Neighbors who had gathered down below, waiting for firemen to arrive, could only look on helplessly as the girl burned to death.
