There is good news the twelve boys and their football coach who are trapped a Thai cave. They are alive and well. The group was missing nine days, but was found rescuers yesterday. Thailand has been praying them to be found since they went missing June 23. The search the group was 24-hour news in Thailand. It was unclear where they were or whether or not they were still alive. The boys, aged 11 and 16, and their 25-year-old coach went missing. They went the cave in northern Thailand when it was dry, but there was suddenly heavy rain. This blocked the exit to the cave. The rain flooded it and the boys and their coach were trapped.

The bad news is that the soccer team could be trapped the cave months. Rescuers have to wait until the water recedes (goes down) the team can get . Another possibility is the boys to learn to dive. If they do that, they can get out sooner. However, none the boys can swim. Rescuers say they may have to take food, medicine and supplies to the boys the next four months. They are currently trying to put power and telephone lines the cave. Two British rescue divers who found the boys said they were all happy, but very, very hungry. The rescuers took a video them. A mother one of the boys described her happiness. She said: "I'm so happy I can't put it words."
