On Friday night, rescuers in Laos successfully evacuated the first of five villagers who had been trapped inside a flooded cave for more than a week.

周五晚上，老挝Laos的救援人员成功营救出五名被困在被洪水淹没洞穴中超过一周的村民中的第一人。

The men originally entered the cave to search for gold but became trapped when heavy rain caused sudden flash flooding. One villager managed to escape early and informed the authorities. Divers discovered the remaining five men alive on Wednesday, about 300 meters from the cave entrance. Rescue workers provided them with water, soft food, and waterproof blankets to keep them warm.

这些男子最初进入洞穴是为了寻找黄金，但由于强降雨引发突发山洪而被困。一名村民成功提前逃出并向当局报告情况。潜水员在周三发现其余五人仍然活着，位置距离洞口约300米。救援人员为他们提供了饮用水、软食以及防水毯以保持体温。

While the first man was safely taken for a medical check, the evacuation of the other four was paused for a day. Rescuers are also searching for two additional people who are still missing deeper inside the cave where the water is extremely deep. Some members of the rescue team previously helped save the 12 schoolboys and their football coach from a Thai cave back in 2018.

首名获救者已被安全送往医院进行体检，而其余四人的撤离行动则暂时暂停一天。救援人员仍在搜寻另外两名失踪者，他们可能位于洞穴更深处，而那里水位极深、环境极其危险。部分救援队成员此前曾参与2018年在泰国发生的Tham Luang cave rescue 2018行动，当时成功救出了被困洞穴的12名学生和他们的足球教练。
