The campaign to bring out 12 teenagers and their coaches in a cave in Thailand has started.
For the last two weeks, this group has taken shelter in the dry upland of the submerged cave in flood waters, for which 18 experienced divers have already left for it.
Each teenager will take two divers under their supervision. It takes at least six hours to cross the path. If everything is okay, it is expected that 13 people trapped in two to three days can be brought out. But the authorities do not deny the risk.
Why they went inside the cave
There is no specific answer to this question yet. 12 teenage footballers went inside the cave with their team coach on Saturday, 23 June.
The BBC's Thai service says that teenage boys went to National Park in the morning to practice football. Then their assistant coach Ekapol posted a live video on Facebook at 10.42 in the morning.
The pillar, a worker from Luang-Khumna Nangan National Park, noticed at around three in the afternoon that there were 11 cycles in front of the entrance of the cave.
Then they started searching. Then the parents of one of the teenagers told National Park officials that they could not even contact their son.
The next day, on 24th June, the work of finding them began from Sunday morning. The investigation started after the police informed the police about the disappearance of the children on Saturday night.
It is said that after the practice was over, they were believed to have entered the cave to organize a surprise party for a member of the football team.
A member of the group who could not go inside the cave with the rest of the children, he said that earlier they had entered the cave three times earlier. But in the rainy season, they never went inside the cave.
A member of the game said, "We have made preparations every time. We always had a flashlight with us, before entering, we made sure that everyone is physically fit, after eating and then we got inside."
The game says that on that day he did not go inside the cave with the group because he was not feeling well. "As a part of our training, we went inside the cave and one of our team members was in front. I think they were going to make a party inside," he said.
Later, in a letter sent from the cave, Assistant Coach Akapol requested his relatives not to worry, he thanked everyone for his cooperation and apologized to the parents of the children
How to get trapped inside
It is said through the local media that the football team started to pour heavy rain since entering the cave. The jungle of the jungle also gets into the cave inside. The water is so much that it is stopped at one stage, the entrance to the cave too.
As the water height grew rapidly inside the cave, the youngsters with the coach were trapped inside. They go to find more high grounds and go deeper in the cave.
This pillar is Luang Guha 10,316 meters long and there are caves in Thailand, it is the fourth in length.
On July 7th, a local newspaper website said that the rescue cove found a tunnel on the top of the hill, where it is possible to reach where the children are. There is a new hope that children may be able to get out of this tunnel.
Some folktales about the cave
There are many stories going on in the face of local people with this cave. In a story, how is it called 'pillar Luang-Khoon name naan'? It means: "There is a woman lying in a huge cave in the mountains, a river that was born on this mountain."
It is said in the story that a princess from Chiang Rung town in South China became pregnant after having a relationship with a cavalier man. They ran away from the city and went south to panic in fear of society.
When they arrive in this hilly area, the princess's husband told her to rest there. The husband then went out in search of food. Then the princess's father saw him and killed him.
The princess stayed there for a few days and waited for her husband. When she is sure that her husband will not return, she will put a clip of her hair inside her stomach. Then his corpse was turned into a mountain and the blood that came out of his body flowed, and the name 'Maa Mae Sai' was born.
The more those who lost
According to a local Thai news release, a leader of the local Ban Jong village said that in 1986, a foreign tourist disappeared inside the cave. After seven days of missing, he was safely rescued. But there was no flood at that time, he said.
A teacher from a Chinese university was said to have gone missing inside the cave in August 2016. He has not been found for three months.
A local newspaper wrote that the Chinese teacher, who had kept his bike in a shop at National Park, told the shopkeeper he was going inside the cave to meditate or meditate.
