Thai Teens Trapped in Flooded Caves
泰国青少年被困淹没洞穴
A group of 12 teen boys and their 25-year-old football (soccer) coach went missing on Saturday and are believed to be trapped in a flooded cave complex in northern Thailand. The caves span about 10 kilometres under a mountain. Approximately 1,000 people are working on the rescue mission, including Navy SEAL divers and volunteers. Attempts to drain water from the caves have been hampered due to heavy rainfall in the area. Relatives cling to hope knowing that the boys, who range in age from 11–16, are strong and had food with them and probably have access to water. The boys have also been in the cave complex several times before. The caves are off limits at this time of year due to the dangers of flooding.
星期六,12名青少年男孩及其25岁的足球教练失踪,据称被困在泰国北部一个被水淹没的洞穴中。洞穴位于一座山下,长约10公里。大约有1000人正在进行救援任务,包括海豹特遣队潜水员和志愿者。由于该地区有强降雨,所以从洞穴中排水的工作受到了阻碍。家人们心怀希望,他们知道这些11-16岁的孩子们很坚强,并且带有食物,或许还能喝到水。孩子们以前也在洞穴中待过几次。每年的这个时候洞穴属于禁区,因为可能被洪水淹没。
