Morocco quake survivors protest; toll tops 600

Angry homeless survivors from an earthquake that killed nearly 600 people in northern Morocco blocked a main road on Wednesday in protest at the lack of government aid to rebuild their shattered lives.
Dozens of demonstrators staged a sit-in on the road linking the Mediterranean port city of Al Hoceima to the interior, interrupting all traffic.
Hopes dimmed of finding any more people alive in the rubble of mud-brick homes in villages around Al Hoceima.
The death toll from Morocco's worst natural disaster in more than 40 years rose to at least 564, the health minister said.
