"All conditions are still as good as they were yesterday," Narongsak told a news conference. "The boys' strength, the plan - today we are ready like before. And we will do it faster because we are afraid of the rain."

Authorities have been rushing to extract the boys, ages 11-16, and their coach from the cave as the annual monsoon bears down on the mountainous region in far northern Chiang Rai province. Workers have been laboring around the clock to pump water out of the cave, and authorities said Monday that heavy downpours overnight did not raise water levels inside.

It’s starting to rain so they have to hurry.

Also not to forget that one of the hero rescue divers died 3 days ago delivering oxygen, didn’t have enough for himself.

Dear Lord, Guide them, quickly!

This is such an amazing miracle. I really was not expecting them to be found, let alone found ALIVE, let alone rescued!

WOW! :)

This is Dr. Park Loharachun. a Thai doctor/diver who stayed with the children when they first found them. He’s also a Thai navy SEAL

I used to scuba dive and hated when anything at all touched my tank. I practiced changing tanks in the water but only at the surface (like thats where you are gonna have a screw up!).You would have never gotten me to go diving in a cave. NEVER.
