Days of heavy rainfall, high winds and mudslides in Morocco led to the deaths of least 10 people on Tuesday, AFP reported on Wednesday (March 10th). Seven residents of Ksiba drowned in an attempt to cross a swollen river, while three others died in the towns of Taza and Midelt. More than 400 houses in Khenifra were also flooded.
In Algeria, five people died since Monday in road accidents triggered by snow and rain, APS reported. Heavy snowfall has forced the closure of roads linking Tizi-Ouzou to Bouira and Illoula Oumalou to Bejaia province. In the last few days, mountains in Blida have recorded "exceptional" snowfall.
