In their messages to their families those kids are showing a lot of courage in circumstances that must be terrifying for them.
Meanwhile, the BBC are attempting to keep us updated on their
website and have embedded this:
Thailand's government has released details about the rescue plan.
The government has distributed a GFX about how the boys will dive out from Tham Luang cave:
equipment - air tanks, full face masks
two divers accompanying one child
they dive together, guided by the rope placed by the rescuers
when facing a very narrow path, they will release the tank from the back and slowly roll the tank and guide the kid through the channel
from Chamber 3 to the cave's mouth they will walk
The government says the advantages are that this could be done fast and without using much resources.
But it also warns that this requires requires high-level skills of the divers; the boys should have some diving skills, strong mind and should not be panicking.
