Summary Thousands rally for peace in Morocco at the site of a recent cafe bombing.

Police have arrested three suspects in the attack that killed 17 people including eight French nationals. “All those people came out to condemn terrorism. Candles, flowers, speech and the music reflect the daily life in Marrakesh, especially in that square.”Thousands also gathered in Djemaa el-Fna to show their support for the victims of the attack, laying a wreath at the scene of the bombing. “Despite the people who want to harm Marrakech and Morocco, we say that Djemaa el-Fna is still at the heart of Marrakesh,” said one demonstrator.
