bangkok - The Thai Seals do everything they can to get the Thai soccer team, which has been missing since a Saturday in a cave complex in the north of the country, alive above ground. Rescue workers are drilling a deep shaft to free the players and the coach. The rescue operation is difficult because the caves have been flooded by heavy rainfall.

It concerns twelve boys between the ages of eleven and fifteen and their 25-year-old coach. When the team did not return on Saturday after an excursion, an alarm was sounded. Rescue workers and divers have localized the boys, but have not yet succeeded in reaching them or making contact. The cave system is muddy and unclear due to the flood. The suspicion is that the team has taken refuge in a 7 kilometer distant cave.

Family members of the missing persons are now guarding at the entrance of the complex. Scuba divers of the Thai Seals search for the missing in the flooded caves. The divers have a difficult task because the water is very cloudy. If they find the missing, chances are that they can not immediately be evacuated by the water.
