8:47Now PlayingCave divers are squeezing through narrow, flooded corridors in a delicate operation to reach seven villagers trapped underground in a cave in Laos for nearly a week.
The villagers went into the cave in the central Laotian province of Xaisomboun last Wednesday in search of gold, but heavy rain triggered flash flooding which blocked the exit, the Associated Press reported, citing Laos and Thai rescue teams.
CNN’s Mike Valerio has more, and technical dive instructor Mikko Paasi shares what he experienced during his rescue attempt in the cave.
