Two government officials indicated that the child, who had been trapped in a well in northern Morocco for five days, died before rescuers could reach him late Saturday.

Rescuers were eventually able to retrieve his body late Saturday after removing a wide section of the hill adjacent to the well in a long, complex, and painstaking operation.

For his part, Moroccan journalist Mohamed Said Soussi told Al Mayadeen that extensive efforts were exerted to save Rayan but to no avail, adding that during the first three days, Rayan was responding and resisting death.

Soussi explained that the operation was very complicated, and the rescue team worked in an epic manner, pointing out that unofficial leaks suggest that Rayan passed away on Friday.
