Pope Francis praises the people in Morocco for their efforts to save Rayan, the five-year-old boy who fell down a 32-metre well in the north of the country earlier this week. Found dead in a tragic end to a five-day rescue operation that gripped the nation and the world, the emergency crews "put everything they had into it," the Pope says in the Angelus prayer. SOUNDBITE

The sun rises in Morocco Saturday during the nerve-wracking final stages of a massive rescue operation to free Rayan, a five-year-old boy trapped down a well since Tuesday. The complex and risky earth-moving operation has gripped residents of the North African kingdom and even sparked sympathy in neighbouring Algeria, a regional rival. Rayan fell some 32 metres (100 feet) down the empty shaft in the remote village of Ighrane in Chefchaouen province on Tuesday afternoon. IMAGES
