Devastating earthquake in Morocco transforms mountain village into a landscape of massive rocks

A border collie named Colin is searching for survivors in the remote mountain village of Douzrou in Morocco, which was devastated by an earthquake. Colin is a rescue dog trained to find the scent of living people. However, locals believe that it is unlikely that anyone is still alive in the village, as most homes collapsed during the earthquake. The rubble consists of boulders, mud bricks, and timber, leaving little chance for air pockets where people could survive after building collapses. More than 100 people have been killed in the village. The British rescuers, accompanied by Colin, speak with a village elder before leaving the mountain of rubble. Despite Colin's experience in previous earthquake rescues, there is no indication of any survivors in the area. Morocco's government has decided to only accept help from four countries, citing lack of coordination. The British rescue team faces challenges as they navigate through remote villages and treacherous mountain roads. The 30km journey from the base camp to Douzrou takes nearly five hours. In Douzrou, the devastation is overwhelming, and residents are struggling to survive with their homes destroyed. Residents express the need for more assistance as they cope with the aftermath of the earthquake.
