Four More Miners Rescued from Flooded Laos Cave, Two Still Missing

Four more miners who were trapped in a flooded cave in Laos for 10 days have been freed by divers, but two people are still missing as rescuers continue to crawl through narrow, deluged tunnels and sharp rocks to find them. [...] This affects the consistency and visibility of the water, he said: “You’re essentially diving in coffee. You’re not going to be seeing anything through it.” [...] Bongkawong said his team were planning to explore an area deeper inside the cave, about 20 to 25 metres beyond where the survivors were found. However, he warned that the section was heavily flooded.
