A rescue team on Friday night freed one of seven men trapped inside a semi-submerged cave in central Laos for more than a week, the group working at the site said.
The group became trapped after flash floods blocked their exit, with rescue operations complicated by heavy rain.
Lao and Thai rescue workers posted the news on social media, along with a video showing the first rescued villager with a lamp strapped to his forehead.
