There’s a doctor in the cave. I read a tweet that said he decided to send the weakest out first. Great news!

It has been reported that doctors assessed the boys inside the cave on Saturday and drew up an priority evacuation list with the weakest to be brought out first, and the strongest to be rescued last.

Australian doctor inside the cave decided to bring out the weakest kids first as cave conditions have been the best in days.

I would assume you’re referring to the likely military trained divers? I would think everyone knows the world is watching, lots of pressure on the rescuers. I do hope you’re right though.

That Australian doctor is a badass. He gets called in for cave rescues all over the world.

The British divers have gone on three day miles deep rescue missions before. It sounds like if you took the kids out of the equation this cave wouldn’t be worth their time.

11 hr round trip for just the divers, can’t imagine how much longer it takes with the kids.


The kids are accompanied by divers so it takes the kids half as long.

Such good news for a Sunday (here) morning

LINK

Daily Mail has large collection of pictures, including ambulances moving out to either the hospital or to the helicopters to move some to the hospital faster.
Some pictures of the divers (who knew the Finns had specialists who ooze confidence.)

Looks like they have stopped the rescue mission and will get the remaining ones out tomorrow.

And there's that much more 'air' for those waiting. The Daily Mail showed huge Oxygen containers at the site to feed more Oxygen into the air in the cave.

It might make the wait easier knowing of today's successes.

They were also able to pump another foot of water out and that’s why they started bringing them out. A lot of it was walkable after they got that much much out.
