Thirteen Lives, True Story of Bravery and Heroism

If you did not follow EURO News or Reuter back in 2018, you
may have missed the harrowing news story of the 12 boys and their assistant coach
trapped in the Tham
Luang cave in Thailand, and of their rescue. It was and is today the story

international compassion and unity to preserve human life.
