Oujda Initiates Campaigns After Sidi Abdel Wahab Fire
The article focused on the issue of market fires in the eastern region of Morocco, particularly in the Melilia and Tangier markets, and their impact on commercial investments. It explained that the fire in the Melilia market in 2011 resulted in losses of approximately 17 billion centimes, without any compensation for the traders, due to legal and structural obstacles that reduce insurance coverage, such as the nature of contracts and the absence of property titles. To improve the situation, a partnership agreement was announced with an insurance company that provides comprehensive coverage for shops and goods, as well as health coverage. The article also emphasized the importance of awareness campaigns to review behaviors within shops to prevent fire causes, such as illegal electrical wiring and storing hazardous materials. The association called on authorities to provide sufficient firefighting means and facilitate the installation of fire extinguishing devices inside shops to reduce risks, especially given the current inadequate firefighting equipment.
