The Times has reporters on the scene and will be providing updates regularly. Go here to see maps and diagrams of how the rescue is unfolding.

• The first four rescued players were at the hospital, military and local officials said. But it will be hours — from 10 to 20, according to the search chief — before other boys can start the trip. Divers will be replacing air tanks and supplies along their route until then.

• In the town where the soccer team is based, the celebration was exuberant, even as families awaited word on the rest of the team.

• The rescues came as heavy monsoon rains returned to the area, after days of relative respite. Experts say the rain will not immediately make water levels rise within the cave, but it greatly increases the urgency of the operation.
