03:38Spanish rescue teams continued their operations in villages affected by the Moroccan earthquake as seen in footage on Thursday from Talat N'Yaaqoub, a small rural town in Al Haouz Province.
Firefighters and soldiers can also be seen in the mountain area, assisting in setting up tents.
"We came to help them with our assets which include technical research, we have drones as well as other elements in order to help find people but also corpses. In order to find people, we have technology like search dogs, a medicine, two nurses and two sanitary technicians," one volunteer from Spain explained.
"There are firefighters who are also specialised in infrastructure assessment, that can also help assess a building for instance. We assess emergency situations, and afterwards, a technician should look into this and say whether a building has to be torn down. We have to know this assessment so we can be aware of the risks we face when we are rescuing people," he added.
According to the latest estimate by the authorities, the death toll across the country has passed 3,000, with many of those killed in the rural communities. Media reports claim thousands remain without essentials such as food, water and power, with routes often impassable.
Many of the victims are from the Al Haouz region, south of Marrakech. According to the US Geological Survey, the epicentre was located 72 km southwest of Marrakech in Morocco's High Atlas mountain range.
