 One person was killed and three others wounded when the dome of a mosque in Morocco partially collapsed, a week after a similar incident killed 41 people, local media reported on Sunday.

The dome of the Al-Amal mosque in the town of Zaio in the Nador province in northeastern Morocco collapsed on Saturday during repairs, the media reported.

Eight days ago, the 400-year-old minaret came down during prayers at the Bab al-Baradeen mosque in Meknes, a town in northern Morocco, killing 41 worshippers and injuring over 80.

Reports blamed heavy rains for the collapse.
