Pictures have emerged of a five year old boy trapped at the bottom of a well shaft in Morocco after he miraculously survived a 100ft fall on Tuesday.

Camera footage from a frantic rescue operation showed the boy lying at the bottom of the shaft with a rope which rescuers used to transport water and oxygen in a desperate attempt to keep him alive.

The operation to save the young boy's life entered its fourth day today, with Moroccans still waiting anxiously on Friday morning after authorities and firefighters continued to dig a trench parallel to the well in an attempt to pull him out.

Authorities said the mission was nearing its end overnight, with spokespeople reporting around 3am GMT that there was less than 20ft of earth left to dig to reach him.


The five-year-old, named as Rayan, fell down the narrow 100-foot (32-metre) deep well on Tuesday evening in his home village of Ighran near Bab Berred in the rural northern province of Chefchaouen, local media said (camera footage shows a rope which was used to deliver oxygen and supplies to keep him alive)

Pictured: Moroccan authorities and firefighters work 24 hours to get five-year-old child Rayan out of a well into which he fell on Tuesday, in the region of Chefchaouen near the city of Bab Berred.

"We're almost there," said one of the operation's leaders, Abdesalam Makoudi, on Friday afternoon. "We've been working non-stop for three days and tiredness is kicking in, but the whole rescue team is hanging on."



Rescue workers have lowered an oxygen mask, food and water into the well.

Medical staff, including specialists in resuscitation, are on site to attend to the boy once he is pulled out, with a helicopter on standby to transport him to the nearest hospital.

I hope he is safe

Watched thing kind of thing in 911 series movie

The rescue effort has captivated the nation with the hashtag #SaveRayan trending across social media.

'The child's rescue is approaching,' government spokesman Mustapha Baitas said late last night. 'Our hearts are with the family, and we are praying that he will back with them as soon as possible.'

Residents watch in concern as civil defence and local authorities dig in a hill as they attempt to rescue a 5 year old boy who fell into a hole near the town of Bab Berred near Chefchaouen, Morocco, Thursday, Feb. 3, 2022.

Video captured of a screen showing a camera's footage as it was lowered down into the well where the boy fell 100ft.

The shaft was too narrow for rescuers to go down themselves, so they were forced to dig down the side of the well in an attempt to reach the boy.

Hope he's rescued before it's too late
Similar case that happened the Mexico, it tool the firefighters less than 48 hours to dig another well parallel to the well the little girl fell in and was rescued. 3 days is a tad too long for this kind of rescue operation, hope it does not eventually turn into a recovery

Abeg make una give me the location make i go rescue am

The terrain will determine how fast the rescue operation will be.

I pray they get to him quickly, but i don't understand how people will dig hole then leave it open without barricades or cover.

Could be their style over there...maybe they don't cover their wells.

True

The drilling process in its final stage.

Local media Le360 says two rescuers are manually digging the final inches that separate them from the 5-year-old.

May he be rescued alive and well.

Good job, Morrocan govt

Morocco is an African country.


Should I say a saner clime.

Northern Africa is most blessed of the African continent.


Coming down to Nigeria our dear country lives are lost in hundreds everyday and all we could do is bash ourselves here on nairaland..


We've lost it!


Those with a blurred lens sees it that Nigeria is decayed and is beyond repair but believe me there's always a way out!

Better news. I pray he survives it.

I pray he survives it and I want him to survive it. Let them take all the time they want. The boy just needs to survive. Would have been worse if he was sharing the oxygen with another person.

The battle to free a five-year-old boy who fell down a well in Morocco entered its fourth day on Saturday, as his desperate father and hundreds of villagers watched on anxiously from the sidelines.

His father (pictured), who said he was repairing the well when the boy fell into it, was pictured nervously watching the rescue mission late on Friday night.


Emergency workers are pictured preparing a tunnel which will be used to access the boy horizontally.

Hundreds of villagers gathered on Friday as they anxiously watched the rescue mission unfold.

May he be rescue alive, I pray.

Rescuers are just a few meters away from him. God please preserve his life him till they reach him

This stage is the most important and most complicated one,” he said.

“You can’t sacrifice a team if there is a chance of collapse,” he added, explaining that the rescuers could not send anyone down to start digging across until they had secured the parallel shaft.
