Spital. The two boys were transported by helicopter to Chiang Rai Prachanukroh hospital, a hundred kilometers away, after a medical examination, and then the last kilometers to the hospital, completely closed , were handed over to the ambulance. There, the entire eighth floor was cleaned for them, and more than 30 doctors are waiting around the clock to look after the children. Regarding the state of health, there are conflicting statements.

The boys were partially stunned by saving
Rescue. 18 divers went to Thai Tham Luang Cave at midnight from Saturday to Sunday (5am local time). It was the beginning of a historic mission: to bring back the twelve boys and their coach to freedom. Two divers were supposed to bring a child, led by ropes, through the tortuous cave. According to Danish diver Ivan Karadzic, the children were partly stunned not to panic.
Originally, hopes for their first success were only much later – it was possible that the rescue began earlier than officially announced. In addition, the water level should have been lower than expected.

"The operation went off smoothly," said Narongsak Osotthanakorn, director of operations. The rescue operation will continue in ten to twenty hours. Divers will now need to refresh the breathing air supplies that were used in the first phase. All the boys wore respiratory masks and had been driven by the divers through the tunnels.
The forces had decided to launch the rescue operation due to lack of time due to the threat of rain. In addition, the oxygen content in the chamber of the cave, in which the football team had fled. "Today is day X", the rescue operation has begun, announced Narongsak Sunday. If the rescue mission does not start immediately, the boys and rescuers "would miss the opportunity".
Originally the forces had announced that footballers should be out of the flooded cave "one after the other". The rescue operation should therefore take two to three days. But he was apparently faster than expected.
Heavy monsoon rains jeopardize rescue of survivors
Thai weather authorities also predicted a 60 percent chance of rain with thunderstorms on Monday. The forces had also pushed their rescue operation Sunday because of weather forecasts, although expert diving is considered difficult and dangerous. Four boys have already been released. The rescue mission of the remaining remaining footballers will continue Monday
The first four youths were released from the partially flooded cave in the north of the country Sunday night (local time) after 15 days of captivity and taken to the hospital. Subsequently, the rescue operation was suspended for 10 to 20 hours, as had announced the governor of the province Narongsak Osottanakorn
Meanwhile, breathable air reserves in the cave should be refreshed. Eight teenagers and their coaches are still waiting to be rescued from the Luang-Khun Nam Nang Tham cave in the north of the country on the border with Myanmar.

AUSTRIA: Where are you currently monitoring developments?
Jan Frederik Langshausen: I am in front of the hospital, which is completely closed. The entrance was covered with a tarpaulin for privacy. Ambulances bring the children directly.
AUSTRIA: When did you know the beginning of the rescue operation?
Langshausen: It has already been suggested during the night when a screen was installed in front of the cave. The pavilions of divers and miners were also protected. You could not see anything up to the medical tent. We have already wondered if this would be done for children.
AUSTRIA: So we expected at the beginning?
Langshausen: I was waiting for a sign. It may have started earlier than scheduled officially during the rescue operation. Sunday morning, the road and access to the camp were already closed and security guards everywhere. As it was clear that it starts. Shortly after, this was also confirmed at a press conference
AUSTRIA: How was the state of mind?
Langshausen: Of course, people are scared. Such action can go wrong. Everyone is nervous here. Wait and hope that the ambulance will enter.
AUSTRIA: Did you know exactly what happened?
Langshausen: We know very well how the action should unfold. Children are transported by helicopter to the aerodrome, which is less than one kilometer from the hospital and which is then transported directly to the hospital by ambulance.
Diving the cave largely branched for professionals
The dive into the cave with wide ramifications is already exhausting for professionals. The boys and their coach have recently been introduced to the basic rules of diving, some of them can not even swim.
Since boys can hardly see anything in muddy water, ropes are attached to their direction. The dangerousness of the company had shown Friday the death of an experienced Thai diver who had died at the exit of the cave due to lack of oxygen.

Cave Drama: Boys Write Letters
The football team had made an excursion into the cave on June 23 and had been surprised by the mbades of water rising after the storms. Only nine days later they were found by divers and provided food. For more than two weeks, Thailand is worried about the fate of boys who have received messages of support from around the world.
First, the forces had attempted to find another cave exit for rescue. In addition, they considered the possibility that the rescue would take place only in a few months, when the water flows from the cave after the end of the monsoon season. However, the rise in water level and the simultaneous decrease of the oxygen content in the cave finally forced them to act immediately.
Also registered coaches already
As several media reported, the coach of the guys should already be among the survivors. It is said that the young man of 25 years is very weak and sick, because he would have distributed all his food to the youth
The families of the boys rescued from a Thai cave wait for a first meeting. As reported by the Thai PBS station on Monday, the authorities have informed the families to be ready for a visit to the hospital. On Sunday, special divers rescued four of the young footballers from the cave. They are currently being treated in a hospital in Chiang Rai City
Heavy monsoon rains in the night
The rescue of the remaining eight teenagers and their football coach from a cave in Thailand could place them rescuers in front of another hurdle: On Monday night, heavy monsoon rains plunged into the Chiang Rai area for hours. The extent to which rainfall affected the water levels in the cave was initially unclear.
Thai weather authorities also predicted a 60 percent chance of rain with thunderstorms on Monday. The forces had also pushed their rescue operation Sunday because of weather forecasts, although expert diving is considered difficult and dangerous.
The rescue continues
In Thailand, the rescue mission of footballers trapped and their trainer of a cave on Monday must continue. The first four teenagers were released from the partially flooded cave in the north early Sunday night (local time) after 15 days of captivity and transported to the hospital.
