In the province of Chefchaouen, Morocco, a five-year-old boy fell into a narrow well 32 meters deep, spent three days in it and survived. About it reported on the Al Jazeera website.
The incident occurred on Tuesday, February 2, when the father of a boy named Ryan was repairing a well, the diameter of which is only 45 centimeters. Seeing that the child had fallen, the man immediately called the rescue service.
The head of the rescue team, Abdelhabi Temrani, explained that due to the nature of the soil, they had to dig a tunnel to the depth of the well. The team managed to provide the boy with an oxygen tube and water for the duration of the rescue operation.
