8 boys are out now, 4 boys and their coach remain.

I hope they get all 5 out tomorrow. If they have to leave the coach there on his own, for another night, that's terrible. However, it seems the divers are getting more comfortable with the environment now. Supposedly they have shaved 2 hours off the time it takes them to do a rescue run. Hopefully the increased confidence will allow them to take all 5 out at once, tomorrow.

I don't know if rushing things would be the best thing to do in this situation, but then again the situation is not getting any better.

As of this morning, nine of the boys have been rescued and the rescuers are confident they can rescue the other three and the coach by today's end. Good news!!

Great news. Honestly, didn't expect it would happen, but I'm glad to have been proven wrong.

Apparently, Elon Musk felt he had not gotten enough attention:

A British cave diver who helped rescue 12 Thai boys from deep within a cave has said he is considering suing tech entrepreneur Elon Musk.
In now-deleted tweets, Mr Musk had called Vern Unsworth a "pedo guy" after the cave expert ridiculed a mini-submarine built by Mr Musk for the rescue effort as a "PR stunt".
Mr Unsworth told reporters on Monday that he was considering legal action.
"It's not finished," he told Australian network Channel 7.
Thailand-based Mr Unsworth's knowledge of the cave complex is said to have played a key role in the rescue effort. He travelled into the caves in the first days after the boys went missing and helped bring in top international cave rescue experts for the mission.
Mr Unsworth had earlier said the mini-sub built by Mr Musk's team, and flown to Thailand before being rejected as inappropriate for the rescue mission by Thai officials, would have had "absolutely no chance of working".
Elon Musk, who regularly takes on journalists and other critics on Twitter, on Sunday tweeted a response to Mr Unsworth, without using his name but calling him a "British expat guy who lives in Thailand".
He said he would make a video showing the mini-sub making it deep inside the cave "no problemo", adding: "Sorry pedo guy, you really did ask for it".
As if there's no other reason to go rescue kids than being a pedophile.
