First boys rescued from Thai cave — local reports
The first four of twelve boys trapped in a flooded Thai cave along with their football coach have been pulled out by rescue teams, according to local reports.
An ambulance has been filmed leaving the site.
Authorities have highlighted the tiny passageway near a T-junction, or Sam Yak in Thai, as the most dangerous element of the journey for the “Wild Boars” team that began Sunday morning, but there are many other potential pitfalls in the rescue operation.
