Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work

Casablanca authorities in Morocco are preparing to move 9,012 families from the Karyan Rhamna shantytown in Sidi Moumen.

The settlement holds roughly 28,000 people living in 7,000 makeshift homes. Officials are finalizing administrative and technical arrangements for the relocation, which has been delayed for decades. Eligible families will receive social housing flats priced at 110,000 Moroccan dirhams each, located in several districts of Greater Casablanca including Bernoussi and Zenata.

Casablanca Iskane et Équipements, a regional company, is working with property developers to secure the housing units. However, no specific date has been set for when residents will move or when demolitions will begin, leaving many in the settlement awaiting further information.
