Cristiano Ronaldo’s Marrakesh hotel is not providing shelter to earthquake victims in Morocco.

Date:

A hotel in Marrakesh owned by Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is not providing refuge to victims of Morocco’s deadly earthquake.

On Friday, a 6.8-magnitude earthquake devastated the rocky High Atlas area.

Nearly 2,000 people have died as a consequence of the natural catastrophe, and many more have been injured or are still missing.

Lionel Messi is among those who have sent condolences to the region.

According to reports, Ronaldo has made the Pestana CR7 Marrakesh hotel open to individuals in need of refuge, but the hotel has stated that this is not the case.

A hotel spokeswoman told Liberation that “this is fake information.” All of our current customers have made usual reservations.”

The old town area of Marrakesh – which is a UNESCO World Heritage site – has been hit hard by the powerful earthquake.

Several buildings and walls have collapsed, while narrow alleyways are making it difficult for the injured to be escorted to safety.

Town squares have been converted into makeshift emergency shelters housing food, water and beds.

The Morocco national football team have been doing their bit to aid the rescue efforts, with players donating blood to help support victims.
