Rescuers in Morocco have used their bare hands to dig for survivors, more than 48 hours after a powerful earthquake claimed more than 2,000 lives.

Mountain villages near the epicentre lie in ruins and many local people are desperately awaiting aid.

The Moroccan government says it has accepted aid from four countries so far – Britain, Spain, Qatar and the UAE.

Friday’s earthquake, the country’s deadliest in 60 years, struck below villages in the High Atlas mountains south of Marrakesh.
