RECONSTRUCTION. “Daddy! Get me out of here!”: How Rayan fell into the pit when his daddy didn’t look for a second, and rescuers arrived just too late to save him | Abroad

For four days, the world held its breath for Rayan, and on Saturday night he breathed a sigh of relief. More than 100 hours after the 5-year-old boy fell into a deep water well in Morocco, rescuers were able to free the child. But seven minutes after Rayan was taken out of the well to loud applause, word came that the toddler had not survived. A reconstruction of four days of nail biting, with the outcome that no one wanted.
