What thread is that?

Sort by new. A few toxic comments, but they get the news real quick.

A French news source saying a fourth boy has come out.

You would like to think that the thorough preparation they have undertaken before this extraction has been the reason it seems to be happening faster than anticipated.

Boys 4 & 5 almost out . at the 3rd chamber which they're able to walk .

Evacuation priority list

The nearest hospital is about an hour's drive from the area, the BBC's Dan Johnson reports.

The boys' families are waiting there, our correspondent says.

He adds that doctors assessed the boys inside the cave on Saturday, deciding on a priority evacuation list - with the weakest being brought out first.

Those two are the weakest of the lot.
And a 4th ambulance has arrived.

  Four boys expected to 'walk out' soon
  Lieutenant-General Kongcheep Tantrawanit has said another four of the boys are expected to walk out "shortly".
  
  They are currently at the divers' "base camp", inside the cave system, he said.
  
  "Four boys have reached chamber three and will walk out of the cave shortly," he said, according to news agency AFP.

A reporter at the scene has apparently been told by rescue teams at the entrance of the cave that the lowered water levels have shortened the journey out of the cave.

Many chambers are reportedly walk-able now, which would go some way to corroborating the Reuters report.

Further rain, however, is forecast later today.

 

[Jimmybob]

Water levels must be a lot lower than what has been reported today for them to be coming out so quickly.

freakiest part of lindt siege was the videos he made them shoot popping up on youtube

 

[Dadda Dave]

This is awsome news ..
No casualties please..

 

[Dadda Dave]

Water levels must be a lot lower than what has been reported today for them to be coming out so quickly.

Ch 9 reported that was the case where the water levels are lower so the boys can be carried or walk out.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Amazed they got through that 15 inch section.

Four boys expected to ‘walk out’ soon - AFP reports

They are currently at the divers’ “base camp”, inside the cave system, he said, according to Agence France Press.

“Four boys have reached chamber three and will walk out of the cave shortly,” he said,.

Surely the coach gets the axe once he's out.

He should really be charged with reckless conduct endangering lives. Surely you'd know how dangerous going down in a cave during monsoon season would be with the potential of a flooding downpour occurring at any time.

 

[SportsCentre]

Is it just me that cringes everytime one of our media outlets says "Australian" either medic, diver who is assisting in the rescue. Does it really matter where they're from? Everyone there is trying to help and achieve the best possible outcomes. Feels like a dick-measuring contest having to mention "Australian".

Wait, what?!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

According to Al Jazeera 4 boys are now out.

 

[edgie]

Maybe they will keep the cave accessible just long enough to make a movie before blowing it up

This is doing nothing to cure my claustrophobia.

These cave divers bringing them out are deadset heroes.

He should really be charged with reckless conduct endangering lives. Surely you'd know how dangerous going down in a cave during monsoon season would be with the potential of a flooding downpour occurring at any time.

You'd think so, but news is coming out that Simon Goodwin has earmarked the cave as being the destination for Melbourne's pre-season training for the 2019 season.

 

[raskolnikov]

Apparently the parents wrote a letter to the coach telling him they don't blame him.

I think they may have a different story when it's all over though.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I hope there's more footage and pics from deep inside the cave if it all turns out ok. Would be so interesting
