(via Fox News) -- The first two boys were rescued from a flooded cave in Thailand on Sunday, hours after divers began their operation to free the 12 boys and their coach who have been trapped for more than two weeks, local official said.

The two boys were rescued just before 7 p.m. local time. Further information about the boys and their conditions were released at the time.

A group of 18 divers — 13 foreign and five Thai — began the operation at 10 a.m. Sunday local time to bring the 13 people out of the Tham Luang Nang Non cave in Chiang Rai province after the area saw mild weather and falling water levels in the cave. Chiang Rai acting Gov. Narongsak Osatanakorn said two divers will accompany each boy as they are led out of the cave.
