Thai Team Rescue: GOOD NEWS, Finally!

This is harrowing.
How the team got into the situation in the first place is something many of us haven't backtracked and read, the compelling story of a complex rescue taking the front page:

4 boys safely pulled from Thailand cave as second leg of rescue mission to begin in 10 to 20 hours

Four of the 12 boys trapped with their soccer coach in a cave in Thailand for 16 days were successfully extracted by divers in an hours-long subterranean rescue mission that has gripped the attention of the world, according to the Thai Navy SEALs.
The international effort to save the group has paired elite divers in "buddy teams" with the remaining eight boys and their coach.
Chiang Rai provincial Gov. Narongsak Osatanakorn said the second part of the mission to rescue the others would begin in about 10 to 20 hours after authorities reconvene to assess conditions in the cave and get a briefing on how the initial rescues went.
