Pan of rubble STORYLINE: Firefighters in Moulay Brahim, a village near Marrakech, worked on Saturday to rescue people trapped under rubble after a strong earthquake struck Morocco late Friday night, killing more than 800 people. The powerful earthquake damaged buildings from villages in the Atlas Mountains to the historic city of Marrakech. But the full toll was not known as rescuers struggled to get through boulder-strewn roads to the remote mountain villages hit hardest. People woken by the quake ran into the streets in terror and disbelief. State television showed people clustered in the streets of Marrakech late at night, afraid to go back inside buildings that might still be unstable. The magnitude-6.8 quake was the hardest to hit Morocco in 120 years, and it toppled buildings and walls in ancient cities made from stone and masonry that was not designed to withstand quakes.
