Five villagers found alive in Laos cave as search continues for two missing
Five villagers trapped for over a week in a flooded cave in Xaisomboun province, Laos, have been found alive by international rescue teams, including divers with experience in the 2018 Thai cave rescue. Search efforts continue for two remaining missing villagers, who entered the cave (frequented by locals looking for gold despite safety warnings) on May 19 before flash flooding blocked the exit.
