RABAT — Three years after the devastating Al Haouz earthquake, more than 3,000 families in Morocco reportedly say they are still waiting for state reconstruction support.
The families' claims are linked to disputes involving residency and property status, which have reportedly delayed access to reconstruction assistance.
The continuing delays highlight the challenges involved in rebuilding communities affected by a major natural disaster.
For families still waiting for support, the reconstruction process remains an unresolved issue years after the earthquake struck.
The situation has renewed attention on the difficulties faced by displaced and affected communities when eligibility for government assistance becomes connected to property ownership or residency documentation.
As Morocco continues its long-term recovery efforts, the outstanding claims of thousands of families remain an important part of the country's post-earthquake reconstruction story.
