Thai cave boys in good health: official

Most of the boys rescued from inside a Thai cave this week lost an average of two kilograms during their 17-day ordeal but are generally in good condition and showing no signs of stress, a senior health official said on Wednesday.

Rescuers freed the last four of 12 Thai boys and their soccer coach from deep inside the flooded cave on Tuesday, a successful end to a perilous mission that gripped the world for more than two weeks.

"From our assessment, they are in good condition and not stressed. Most of the boys lost an average of two kilograms," Thongchai Lertwilairattanapong, an inspector for Thailand's health department, told reporters on Wednesday.
