After 17 days trapped in the Tham Luang cave complex, the twelve boys from the Wild Boar football club have finally all been rescued, according to reports from CBS and Reuters.
Amanda Hodge, reporting from the site for The Australian, tweeted that the Thai Navy SEALS have confirmed that all twelve boys plus their coach have been rescued.
Four boys were rescued in the first operation two days ago, and a further four were rescued in the second operation yesterday. Rescue officials said that it was their goal today to remove the remaining four boys, the coach, and four rescue personnel who were inside the cavern with them.

The boys are being taken to Chiangrai Prachanukroh Hospital, where they are being placed in quarantine due to the risk of infection.
Those already receiving treatment have shown some signs of pneumonia and possible signs of infection, but they are otherwise recovering well.
How fucking good is this?
