Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that a 5-year-old Moroccan boy, Rayan, has died after being trapped in a narrow well for four days.
His trapping in the well brought the world together as they world began to cry for his survival and rescue. After being rescued successfully after four days, it was reported that he had died.
The monarch family in Morocco has released a statement following the death of Rayan. “Following the tragic accident which cost the life of the child Rayan Oram, His Majesty King Mohammed VI called the parents of the boy who died after falling down the well,” the statement from the royal palace said.
Rayan’s father was repairing the well at the time of the accident. He said his son fell in at “the one moment he took his eyes off him”.
Led by Morocco’s Civil Protection Directorate, rescue operations in the small northern town of Tamorot, around 100km (62 miles) from the city of Chefchaouen, began on Tuesday evening.
Footage on Thursday from a camera lowered into the well showed that the boy was alive and conscious, but there had been no update on his condition since then.
Rescuers tried to get oxygen, food and water to the boy but it was unclear whether he was able to use them.
The mixture of rocky and sandy soils meant rescuers deemed opening the water well’s narrow shaft to be too dangerous.
Instead, bulldozers were used to cut a huge trench next to the well.
His fans and Moroccans have taken to social media to pen tributes to him after his passing. He died at the age of 5.
