New Delhi: One of many 12 boys who have been rescued from a collapse Thailand in 2018 died in the UK, varied media homes reported on Wednesday (February 15, 2023).
The reason for the loss of life of Duangpetch Promthep is unclear, however he’s stated to have sustained a head harm.
He was reportedly enrolled in a soccer academy in England’s Leicester late final yr when he was 17.
In 2018, Promthep and 11 different boys and their 25-year-old coach, have been exploring the Tham Luang collapse northern Thailand’s Chiang Rai when monsoon rains flooded the tunnels and trapped them underground. Again then, the members of the Wild Boars soccer crew have been aged between 11 and 16.
They survived 9 days in {a partially} flooded chamber earlier than being found by two British divers, but it surely took Thailand’s elite navy SEALs and worldwide volunteers one other eight days to convey them to security.
The 17-day ordeal contained in the sprawling cave advanced had seen volunteers, engineers, and troopers pumping tens of millions of litres of water out of the cave and drilling by means of rocks on the lookout for gaps to succeed in the boys.
