The Thai authorities confirmed today that rescue teams began rescue operations of the twelve children and that the adult was trapped for more than two weeks in a cave in the north of the country. They would belong to a youth football team, the adult being the coach of this team.
Narongsak Ossottanakorn, spokesman for operations, noted that 18 divers play the role after the water level. partially flooded, the caves have descended in a remarkable way, so that the children can walk for a large part of the trip.
"They can now walk along many parts. It's the most appropriate time to remove them .]," He explained. Rescuers, 13 foreigners and 5 Thais, "are the best" to carry out the evacuation, said Narongsak, who said they were expecting the first child to leave the cave on Sunday night. . Operations will be developed gradually, starting with getting children out in better physical and psychological conditions.
At each trip to the cave where the miners are, divers must walk about 1.7 kilometers of narrow underground pbadages between zero visibility and water currents, a road that takes, round trip, about 11 hours. Doctors and members of the health services have been deployed in and around the cave to carry out a possible emergency transfer of the group, Narongsak said.
Authorities have ordered more than a thousand information professionals stationed in the vicinity of the cave to leave the area. The outpost of heavy rains that watered the area last night may be the signal that marked the start of operations. " Rain is one of the main concerns .Water (filtered through the mountains) can re-flood the galleries," said the official spokesman at the time. one of his appearances.
After a favorable climatological window, the waters gave way to the entire underground complex thanks to natural escapes and incessant artificial drainage. The arrival of more rains, scheduled from today until Wednesday, could increase pressure in the already complicated rescue mission.
The group – consisting of twelve children aged 11 to 16 years old and a 26 year old adult – was found Monday night on an island of dry land 4 kilometers inside the cave . The discovery came after nine days of intense research with more than 1,300 people participating.
Minors and imprisoned adults have been able to partially recover the forces since being badisted by doctors and psychologists inside the cave.
In addition, schoolchildren and the instructor have received intensive training to learn to dive, although experts believe that the operation involves a high risk. The thirteen entered the galleries on Saturday, June 23 after a football training when a sudden storm began to flood the cavity and cut off the exit
