On Sunday, April 19, a devastating road accident occurred on National Road No. 8, between the municipality of Mouzaia and the city of Chichaoua, resulting in the tragic deaths of three individuals—a young man and two young women. Additionally, seven others sustained injuries of varying degrees of severity. The collision involved two large taxi vehicles; one was traveling from the Chichaoua region towards Marrakech, while the other was heading in the opposite direction towards Agadir.
The impact of the crash was so severe that it resulted in the immediate death of the three victims at the scene. Emergency responders quickly transported the injured parties to the regional hospital for necessary medical treatment. In response to the incident, local authorities, along with the Royal Gendarmerie and civil protection services, were deployed to secure traffic flow along the affected road segment and to transfer the deceased individuals to the mortuary.
In parallel, the Royal Gendarmerie has launched a judicial investigation under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor's office to uncover the circumstances surrounding this tragic incident and to determine the factors leading to the collision.
