Signs point to beginning of rescue effort
Ambulances have been moved in place. Barriers erected to block all vantage points of the cave entrance.
As rumors grow that the operation to rescue at least one of 12 boys trapped in a flooded cave has begun in secret, the surge of activity outside suggests something is at least imminent.
No statements have been made since a Saturday morning briefing when the former governor leading the rescue operation said the conditions were right to bring them out.
Every day has seen hundreds of rescuers, divers, laborers, soldiers, medics and volunteers swarming the site. Since Saturday morning, that activity has multiplied.
The site's security has been boosted, security tape put up to keep reporters from loitering in the road and high-ranking officials said to be enroute.
At 9pm, several layers of tarps were placed over the way to the cave to obstruct the views of the sea of camera lenses pointed that way.
At about 7pm, the wife of a very senior official told Khaosod English the rescue was underway, but her claims could not be verified. - khaosodenglish.com
