A tragic incident occurred today, Saturday, in the Timoulilt commune of Azilal province, where a part of a high school wall collapsed, leading to the death of a man in his fifties and several of his sheep.
According to Hespress sources, the 50-year-old victim, who was married and a father, was grazing his livestock near the eroded wall of the educational institution when the upper part of the structure unexpectedly collapsed, killing him and some of his animals.
Upon receiving the alert, Civil Protection teams, the Royal Gendarmerie, and local authorities promptly arrived at the scene. The victim’s body was transported to the morgue at Azilal Provincial Hospital. Meanwhile, relevant authorities have initiated an investigation under the supervision of the competent Public Prosecutor’s Office to uncover the full circumstances of the incident and determine potential responsibilities.
Local residents had reportedly warned about the fragility and danger of the high school wall on several occasions, calling for urgent repairs. These warnings were particularly urgent due to increasing natural factors weakening the structure, notably climate change and soil erosion caused by a valley running beneath the wall.
