The death toll continues to rise in Morocco after a powerful earthquake Friday night. The U.S. Geological survey put its magnitude at 6.8.
Officials say more than 2,000 people have died and more than 2,000 others are wounded. Rescue efforts are complicated by the fact that the quake struck remote, mountainous villages.
