Thai Teens Trapped in Flooded Caves
泰國青少年被困淹沒洞穴
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歲的足球教練失蹤,據(jù)稱被困在泰國北部一個被水淹沒的洞穴中。洞穴位于一座山下,長約10公里。大約有1000人正在進(jìn)行救援任務(wù),包括海豹特遣隊潛水員和志愿者。由于該地區(qū)有強(qiáng)降雨,所以從洞穴中排水的工作受到了阻礙。家人們心懷希望,他們知道這些11-16歲的孩子們很堅強(qiáng),并且?guī)в惺澄铮蛟S還能喝到水。孩子們以前也在洞穴中待過幾次。每年的這個時候洞穴屬于禁區(qū),因為可能被洪水淹沒。
