CNN: Five Left to Rescue in Thailand Cave Crisis
RUSH EXCERPT:
DAMON: “Well, what we’re hearing from the authorities is that they should be taking place some point in the afternoon on Tuesday. The last of the kids were brought out at about 7:00 or 8:00 P.M. Local time on Monday and then heard they need about 20 hours, that is so that those who are part of the main core team, those divers that are teaming up two by two to actually escort the kids out, swimming right alongside them, ensuring that they’re able to take this fairly treacherous journey successfully and of course safely and replenish the oxygen and air supplies along the route. This is an incredibly precarious journey for those involved as you can imagine, wolf. Many of the boys who don’t know how to swim wearing full face masks and divers escorting them in the difficult circumstances and murky water and barely see a foot in front of you. And through some very narrow passageways to go through one by one. The eight that have been brought out successfully are at the hospital behind us right now in isolation. There are concerns, of course, about the state of their immune systems and then the potential that they may have some sort of unforeseen disease, wolf.”
