At least one Laos gold miner has been brought out of a flooded cave where monsoon rains trapped a group for over a week, according to a Laotian rescue organization.  Rescue Volunteer for People said on social media that a person, who was not named, was brought out safely at 8:37 p.m. local time on Friday. It was not immediately clear how the miner was rescued. The organization said their name would be announced later.  Seven artisanal gold miners have been in the cave for nine days. Five of the seven miners were located, and two remain missing.  Conditions inside the cave are dangerous and complex. Even before the flooding due to monsoon rains, it was nearly impossible to get in and out of the cave.

The search has been suspended for five missing crew members of a U.S.-flagged cargo ship that overturned near the Northern Mariana Islands during a typhoon, authorities said Wednesday. Six people were aboard the 145-foot ship, called the Mariana. Divers on April 21 recovered one crew member’s body from the overturned ship. “We are deeply saddened to announce that despite widespread efforts, we have made the difficult decision to suspend our search for the missing crew members of the Mariana,” Cmdr. Preston Hieb of the U.S. Coast Guard Oceania District said in a video posted on X.

“We offer our heartfelt condolences to the families of the Mariana crew, as well as the entire Saipan community.” The search lasted more than 100 hours and covered an area larger than the state of California, he said. Last week, officials released dramatic video and photos showing members of the U.S. Air Force and Coast Guard searching for the missing crew. The footage and images showed pararescuemen preparing to conduct dive operations. The teams also used a remotely operated underwater drone to search the interior of the ship.
