Morocco earthquake leaves at least 2,000 dead, damages historic landmarks and topples buildings​

In Marrakech, the famous 12th century Koutoubia Mosque suffered damage, but the extent was not immediately clear. The famous mosque's 226-foot minaret is known as the "roof of Marrakech." CBS News medical contributor Dr. Celine Gounder was in the city and shared photos from the city's medina, or ancient center, showing damaged buildings and streets. Gounder said that some areas of the city were less impacted, but that older areas were impossible to access.

شظايا زلزال الحوز تصل إلى مسجد "تنمل" التاريخي مهد الدولة الموحدية

خلف الزلزال المُدمر الذي ضرب مناطق عديدة بالمملكة أضرارا بشرية ومادية عديدة، إذ أتى على أرواح أكثر من ألفي مغربي ومغربية، وفق آخر الأرقام التي صدرت عن

www.hespress.com

هذا الحادث المأساوي والأليم لم يكن رحيما بتاريخ المغرب ومعالمه التاريخية والحضارية التي تضررت هي الأخرى؛ فمسجد “تنمل” الواقع في أعالي جبال الأطلس الكبير بإقليم الحوز قرب مراكش، مُنطلق الدولة الموحدية التي حكمت بلاد المغرب الكبير والأندلس لأكثر من قرن من الزمن والذي شيده “الخليفة عبد المومن بن علي الموحدي” في العام القرن الثاني عشر الميلادي، تضرر بشكل كبير حسب ما أظهرته صور حديثة تم تداولها على نطاق واسع على بين مستعملي مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي.
