Morocco will spend 120 billion Moroccan dirhams ($11.7 billion) over the next five years to rebuild areas hit by the devastating earthquake, the MAP news agency reported Wednesday, citing the office of King Mohammed VI. The king held a session at the Royal Palace in Rabat on a program for the recovery and reconstruction of earthquake-affected areas, the news agency said. The five-year program, worth 120 billion Moroccan dirhams, reportedly covers six regions of the country with a total population of about 4.2 million people. The program consists of four main parts, including the relocation of people affected by the earthquake and the rehabilitation of housing and local infrastructure, MAP said. On September 9, a 6.9-magnitude earthquake hit Morocco 77 kilometers (48 miles) southwest of the city of Marrakesh with a population of 839,000 people. The epicenter of the earthquake was located at a depth of 10 kilometers, and was followed by at least four aftershocks of up to 4.8-magnitude.
