A third episode of children falling into a well occurred in the United Arab Emirates.
This time the little girl is six years old and fell into the opening at a depth of 15 meters. The incident took place yesterday in Dibba, emirate of Fujairah. Once the emergency was triggered, the rescuers arrived on the spot and one of them dropped into the well to reach the child and bring her back to light. It all took place in an hour. Taken to hospital, she was not seriously injured but was very scared.
In the last few weeks there have been two similar cases, both with dramatic results: in Morocco, little Rayan, 9 years old; in Afghanistan Haidar, 5 years old. They both died.
