Miners trapped in Laos cave send messages home

Footage released by Thai diver Norrased “Benz” Palasing on Thursday (May 28) captured the moment he and Finnish diver Mikko Paasi found five Lao miners who had been trapped in a cave for a week. The miners later recorded short video messages for their loved ones as they waited to be rescued from the cave. The Lao nationals are believed to have entered the cave in Xaisomboun province last week in search of gold, but a landslide triggered by heavy rain blocked their exit. #thailand #thainews #laos Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
