Rescuers are preparing for the second stage of the cave operation
CHIANG RAI, Thailand — Eight boys and their soccer coach who remain trapped in a flooded cave in northern Thailand waited for a rescue operation to resume on Monday as the first four unidentified boys freed were said to be in good health and recovering in hospital. The daring and dangerous bid to rescue the boys — aged between 11 and 16 — was suspended by the mission chief late on Sunday to replenish oxygen supplies and make new preparations, which he said would take at least 10 hours.
