The big operation to free the twelve children and the coach from a flooded cave in Thailand is in progress since six in the morning (Cyprus time), after almost two weeks of staying in the bowels of the earth.
According to calculations, the first child will leave the cave around five in the afternoon (Cyprus time).
The operation involves thirteen world-class specialist divers who have arrived in Thailand from countries with relevant expertise in speleology and five members of the Thai Navy's selected SEAL unit.
