The rescue teams started a full-blown search operations in the deserts using four-wheel drive vehicles and gliders in the rough terrains and sand dunes.
Finally, they found the dead body of Al Ajaleen in a desert, a few meters away from his pick-up truck laden with wood and sticks. Which apparently means, he went out to collect them for his family.
However, it’s still unknown which prayer – out of five daily prayers he was offering in the desert.
