In Morocco, there is shock and emotion after the tragic outcome of Ryan’s rescue. The little boy who fell into a well on Tuesday February 1 did not survive despite the mobilization of relief for five days.

It’s lifeless that Ryan’s body has been extract from the well in the evening of Saturday February 5 at Bab Berred, in Morocco. The little boy did not survive these five days spent 32 meters underground. Neither the relentless efforts of the rescuers, nor the support of an entire country will have been enough. Some minutes more early, his parents were able to enter the tunnel dug by the rescuers. They came out with faces devastated by grief. Then the king of Morocco in person called the bereaved couple to offer their condolences. It is under the prayers and the acclamations of the crowd the ambulance left the scene.

Morocco is in mourning, but beyond that, it was internet users around the world, anonymous and famous, who celebrated the memory of Ryan and the courage of the rescuers. In French and Arabic, Emmanuel Macron shares the pain of the family and of an entire people. Comedians Jamel Debbouze and Gad Elmaleh also shared the photo of the child on their Instagram account. Little Ryan’s face and drawings are all over the web.
