Moroccan authorities have announced plans to fund the rebuilding of about 50,000 homes damaged by last week’s earthquake.

They will provide more than $13,000 (£10,460) for the reconstruction of homes which have been completely destroyed, and $8,000 for those with partial damage.

Residents will meanwhile be given temporary shelters and each household will receive a grant of $3,000.

The exact number of people left homeless is still not known.

Nearly 3,000 people have been confirmed dead, and more than 5,000 injured in the 6.8 magnitude quake. Please subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
