Heavy Lifting Equipment has begun to arrive in remote regions of the Atlas Mountains, which have been the hardest hit. Nick beake joined the first aid convoys to reach some of the most remote villages in the taroudant region. Finally, help is on its way to the most remote victims of this disaster. Werejoining a team of spanish firefighters, the first rescuers to negotiate in treacherous Mountain Road now that the path has been cleared. We reach the village of algou. In the hours after the quake, screams rang out here. But the trapped couldnt be freed. Then the screams turned to silence. These dogs are trained to find the living. Theyre detecting nothing. For three days now, the villagers in this place have been using their hands, and shovels to go through the rubble.

A minister in the eastern government which is not internationally recognised said more than 1,000 bodies had now been recovered in the worst hit city, derna. The eastern cities of benghazi and al marj are also among the worst hit. The death toll is huge and might reach the 2,000. But we dont have a definite number. We confirm from independent sources of information that the number of missing people is hitting 10,000 persons so far. Anna foster has the latest. A torrent of water. The devastation is clear to see.
