MOROCCO HIT BY A DEVASTATING EARTHQUAKE | LIBYA SUFFERING DUE TO DEADLY FLOODS.
In Morocco, a huge 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck before midnight on Friday the 8th of September, killing THOUSANDS of people. Sadly, the poverty-stricken areas have been impacted the most, so many who were already destitute, are now living on the streets waiting for aid.
Not far away in Libya, two dams collapsed after extremely heavy rainfall causing a massive flood which more or less destroyed the city of Derna. Sadly, 10,000 people are feared dead and many more are missing as the water destroyed everything in its path and swept it out to sea, including many men, women and children.
We aim to immediately respond in the form of tents, housing, food packs, clean drinking water, hot meals, hygiene kits and blankets.
Sadly, many people are injured and thousands are displaced, calling out to humanitarian organisations for help. They’re cold, hungry and in dire need of aid.
Our teams have immediately flown out to Morocco and are delivering your emergency aid, whilst our partners are active and delivering in Libya.
The situation is extremely pressing. People are struggling for medication, blankets, food, water and adequate shelter whilst the death toll is rising by the hour. We need your assistance so we can relieve the distress of our brothers and sisters in need.
The prophet Muhammad s.a.w said: ‘Whosoever removes a worldly grief from a believer, Allah will remove from him one of the griefs of the Day of Judgement.’
