在泰國的一個洞穴中失蹤九天之後，12名少年隊員和他們的足球教練日前被發現仍全部活着。這一戲劇性的事件牽動着泰國全體國民的心。

All of them are safe, an official confirmed, speaking after the mammoth search operation in the Tham Luang caves in Chiang Rai.

在對清萊的Tham Luang洞穴進行了大規模的搜救行動後，一位官員發言證實，所有人都很安全。

The challenge now will be to extract the party safely, with rising water and mud impeding access.

The missing group were discovered by naval special forces, Chiang Rai governor Narongsak Osottanakorn said.

清萊州長納隆薩·奧斯塔納科恩表示，是海軍特種部隊發現他們的。

Rescuers had hoped they would find safety on a ledge in an underground chamber nicknamed Pattaya Beach but they were found 400 metres (440 yards) away having moved to higher ground to avoid the rising water.

救援人員曾希望他們能夠在一個綽號爲“芭堤雅海灘”的地下洞穴的壁架上避難，但最終在距離該處400米（440碼）的地方發現了他們，這是因爲他們必須移到更高的地方，以躲避水位上升。

The boys aged 11 to 16 and their coach went to explore the caves on 23 June. The group's plight has gripped the country and led to an outpouring of support.

這些11歲至16歲的男孩和他們的教練是在6月23日前去探索該洞穴的。他們的困境引起了全國的關注，並得到了大量的支持。
