A five-year-old boy, Ryan, who fell into a 32-meter well in the Moroccan province of Chefchaouen and survived there for five days, has died. This was reported in the office of King Mohammed VI of Morocco, RIA Novosti reports.
Mohammed VI called the child’s parents and expressed his condolences to them. It is noted that the king closely monitored the development of the situation, and also issued decrees to all relevant authorities of the kingdom to take measures to save the boy. In addition, the Head of state thanked the rescuers who took part in the operation.
Ryan fell into the well, whose diameter is only 45 centimeters, on February 2. The head of the rescue team, Abdelhabi Temrani, explained that due to the peculiarities of the soil, they had to dig a tunnel to the depth of the well. During the operation, rescuers managed to provide the boy with an oxygen tube and water. The excavation lasted five days, as a result, the child was dragged outside.
