At least 290 people were killed across six states – more than two-thirds of them in Alabama – as America’s deadliest tornado outbreak in almost four decades pulverised entire neighbourhoods. Two of Alabama’s major cities were among the places devastated by the deadliest twister outbreak in nearly 40 years. As day broke on Thursday, people in hard-hit areas surveyed obliterated homes and debris-strewn streets. Some told of deadly winds whipping through within seconds of weather alerts broadcast during the storms on Wednesday afternoon and evening. Residents were told the tornadoes were coming up to 24 minutes ahead of time, but they were just too wide, too powerful and too locked onto populated areas to avoid a horrifying body count

It is still unclear what or who was behind the bomb attack in Morocco that claimed at least 15 lives yesterday.

A blast ripped through a popular restaurant overlooking the Jema al Fnaa square in Marrakesh – an area permanently packed with tourists.

At least 10 of the deceased were foreigners, six of them French.

Morocco’s interior minister has already visited the site of this apparent terrorist attack.

“Those who carried out this terrorist operation must know that we’re going to find them sooner or later,” he said.
