HIBAPRESS – A. Sayyad
The tragedy of the collapse of two residential buildings in the Al-Moustakbal neighborhood in the Al-Massira urban area of Fes, on the night of Tuesday-Wednesday, December 9 and 10, 2025, shook the feelings of Moroccans, after local authorities in the prefecture of Fes reported that the death toll had risen to 22 deaths and 16 injured with varying degrees of severity.
The shock left by the painful accident was clearly reflected on social media platforms, where a number of Moroccan artists and celebrities expressed their deep sadness and condolences to the families of the victims.
One of the first to react was the Moroccan rapper Omar Al-Suhaili, known as “Dizzy Dros”, who wrote on his “Instagram” account: “To God we belong and to Him we shall return… And as usual, no accountability”.
The artist Dounia Batma also offered her condolences via a post that read: “With all sadness and grief, we extend our condolences to the families of the victims of the tragic accident that occurred in the city of Fes, our hearts are with you in this great affliction, and we ask God for a speedy recovery for the injured.”
The international player Youssef En-Nesyri also published a message of condolence that read: “We mourn the victims of the painful tragedy that shook the city of Fes… May God have mercy on the souls that have ascended, and grant them the vastness of His Paradise, and inspire their families with patience and solace”, with his prayers for the recovery of the injured.
The Moroccan actress Ibtissam El-Aroussi also expressed her deep sadness at what happened through a short message in which she said: “To God we belong and to Him we shall return… May God have mercy on the people who died in the Fes accident.”
The interaction was not limited to the artistic circles only, but comments flooded the communication pages with wide waves of solidarity and calls to hold accountable anyone who may have shown negligence, especially after the initial data indicated that the two collapsed buildings date back to 2006 within the “Fes Without Tin” program in the context of self-construction.
The local authorities confirmed that they have begun to open judicial and administrative investigations, with a thorough technical expertise to determine the causes of the collapse, and monitor the possible imbalances that may be behind this tragedy, which has caused a great national shock.
