DR ‹ › Three people are missing after an avalanche struck Mount Toubkal in Al Haouz province on Sunday, according to local authorities. The missing are two Moroccan tourists and a mountain guide. Sources said the victims were part of a tourist group accompanied by two guides. They had spent the night in a mountain refuge in the Toubkal area before setting off early in the morning to descend toward the village of Imlil, when a sudden snow slide occurred. The rest of the group managed to escape the avalanche and returned safely to the refuge. The exact circumstances of the incident remain unclear, as the region is currently experiencing severe weather, with heavy snowfall and significant instability in the snowpack. Following the alert, local authorities immediately launched search and rescue operations in coordination with security forces, civil protection units, and specialized mountain rescue teams. Despite the difficult terrain and harsh weather conditions, significant human and logistical resources have been deployed to locate the missing individuals.
