A 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck about 45 miles southwest of Marrakesh on Friday night, according to the United States Geological Survey. Many people have been displaced. Families with children are sleeping outside. The earthquake and its aftershocks triggered landslides that have blocked roads, cutting off access to first responders and much-needed help. The Red Cross says the damage from this earthquake could take several years to repair.
