Two crewmembers were reportedly missing after a Panama ship wrecked off the shores of El Jadida, some 200 kilometers south of the capital Rabat, on the Moroccan Atlantic coast, while nine other crewmembers managed to reach the shores of El Jadida, according to Maghreb Arabe Presse Monday. 

 

The eleven crewmembers left the ship in two rescue boats last Thursday at midnight, when the ship started to capsize following a violent storm some 23 miles off the Safi shores. (Albawaba.com)
