Thailand's army says twelve boys and their football coach found alive in a Thai cave could be trapped their for months.
The group was located on Monday on a small ledge in the cave system in Chiang Rai in northern Thailand, after nine days missing.
The children would need to be taught diving skills to be brought out - and experts warn it would be a high-risk operation.
Rescuers are trying to get more food and medical supplies to the group, and to install technology to allow them to speak to their families.
Bill Whitehouse from the British Cave Rescue Council, which has been assisting the operation, says whatever happens next will be complicated.
