The UAE has expressed its solidarity with Morocoo after flash floods triggered by torrential rains in the coastal province of Safi left at least 37 people dead.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) expressed its sincere condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims, and to the Kingdom of Morocco and its people over this tragedy, as well as its wishes for a speedy recovery for all the injured.
Heavy rain on Sunday flooded homes and shops in Safi, swept away cars and cut many roads in and around the city about 300 km south of the Moroccan capital, Rabat.
Schools were suspended in the city on Monday as residents assessed damage and cleaned flooded homes.
Videos shared by local media showed flooded streets and swamped cars in the old town, as well as authorities using boats in rescue operations.
