People in towns across Morocco have spent the night sitting outside their homes after the earthquake, a British journalist living in the country says.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Martin Jay said: "There were reports coming through on Moroccan media warning people not to go back into their homes," he said.
"This was a nationwide message that was put out by the authorities.
"So you have this weird evening [in] almost every single town in Morocco, [where] most people are sitting on the ground outside of their houses or apartment blocks, because they were afraid of the second earthquake which they predicted would come two hours later."
