The intricate nature of the cave formation makes it nearly impossible to currently get the children out of the caves. None of them having diving experience, and the small tunnels are less-than-ideal for getting the children out of the cave. U.S. National Cave Rescue Commission coordinator Anmar Mirza had this to say on the issue:
“Supplying [the children] on site may face challenges depending on how difficult the dives are. Trying to take non-divers through a cave is one of the most dangerous situations possible, even if the dives are relatively easy. If the dives are difficult then supply will be difficult, but the risk of trying to dive them out is also exponentially greater.”
