The joy of finding the 12 Thai boys missing for ten days gives way to hope, to the worries of being able to bring them home as soon as possible. The footballers had entered the bowels of the earth accompanied by their 25-year-old coach despite the fact that access to the cave is prohibited during the monsoon rains due to the risk of flooding. The water surprised the group during the exploration, blocking them 400 metres deep in a dry area. Rescuers from all over the world participated in the search and thanks to the tenacity of these men they were found: exhausted by hunger and cold, they are all alive. The cave is over ten kilometres long and has tunnels full of mud and water in which the divers immersed themselves, taking about six hours to reach the point where the boys were found. The route should be the same as that taken to bring them back to the surface, but it is not easy. The estimated times are four months. A very long time considering the logistical situation. The monsoons are making things difficult but the rescue team is considering other hypotheses among these
that of a hole from above with a drill, but the ground is friable and there could be a collapse. Air is being pumped into the cave, today nurses and doctors will reach the group. The only solution for the moment is to teach the children to swim and dive with scuba tanks. A race against time that they are trying to win in order to gain freedom.
