The rescue teams are digging a hole parallel to the well vertically, with a depth of 32 meters, then drilling horizontally and accurately with a diameter of three meters and using pipes to reach the child Rayan, taking care and caution against the occurrence of a landslide.
His health condition is stable

Doctors recommend the need to provide the child continuously with water, and to secure ventilation holes that allow him to supply sufficient oxygen, to help keep him alive, while waiting for him to be safely reached and rescued.
Dr. Ahmed Lahlou, a pediatric intensive care specialist, says that the child’s health condition appears to be stable through the recent video, which will enable him to survive in the coming hours.

potential risks
It remains among the most difficult challenges imposed by fate on the young child, to confront him alone with his unknown fate at the bottom of the deep well, and the possibility of his ability to withstand in complex and harsh conditions.
Dr. Jamal Al-Din Al-Bouzidi says that what he fry most is the temperature that the earthy structure of this layer provides for the child Rayan, who is afraid of what experts call deadly temperatures.

waiting to be taken out
Dr. Lahlou points out that making sure that there is no internal bleeding that may threaten the life of the child remains one of the priority steps that must be taken as soon as he is removed from the well, through conducting accurate analyzes and examinations.
