A Thai youth football team of 12 teenaged boys and their 25-year-old coach were “found safe” late Monday deep in a cave in northern Thailand nine days after they went missing, a provincial governor told reporters.

“We found all 13 safe… we will take care of them until they can move,” Chiang Rai governor Narongsak Osottanakorn said.
