The many news reports about the cave rescue have much conflicting

rescuers have been pumping water out and building weirs across creeks to
divert water away from the cave system, the/Bangkok Post/

Getting them out this week, maybe Thursday, is urgent as floodwaters

there is a chimney or hole they can access instead of trying to get the
boys out through the water.
