With very little time left to rescue the teenage football players of the ‘wild boar’ team, rescuers are now trying to drill 100 chimneys into the mountain to supply oxygen into the cave. The Tham Luang Cave complex where the 12 young football players and their coach are trapped are low on oxygen and the water levels are going to rise with monsoon rains predicted to come soon. Chimneys that are 400 meters long are supposed to provide oxygen but the rescue team are not aware where the boys are which provides a stiff challenge.
