Duangpetch "Dom" Promthep of the "Wild Boars" team was one of 12 players who along with their coach became trapped in the Tham Luang cave during an unexpected rainstorm in June that year.

Faced with tremendous challenges, a team of the world’s most experienced divers navigated the maze of flooded, narrow cave tunnels.

The divers were joined by Thai forces and more than 10,000 volunteers to complete the daring rescue mission. "Duangpetch Promthep has now gone to another world," Supatpong Methigo, a Buddhist monk who taught the team in Thailand's northern Chiang Rai province, wrote on Facebook, according to Reuters. "I hope he will be reborn and become my student again in the next life." ‘THIRTEEN LIVES’ DIRECTOR RON HOWARD, STAR COLIN FARRELL DETAIL ‘EXHAUSTING’ SCENES IN FILM ABOUT THAI CAVE RESCUEPromthep, 17, was found unconscious in his dorm room at the soccer academy he was attending in Leicestershire since late 2022, the BBC reports.

Iran, Saudi Arabia to resume diplomatic relations with China's help
China lowers the chance of armed conflict between the Mideast rivals — both directly and in proxy conflicts around the region.The deal, struck in Beijing this week amid its ceremonial National People’s Congress, represents a major diplomatic victory for the Chinese as Gulf Arab states perceive the United States slowly withdrawing from the wider Middle East. It also comes as diplomats have been trying to end a long war in Yemen, a conflict in which both Iran and Saudi Arabia are deeply entrenched.The two countries released a joint communique on the deal with China, which brokered the agreement as President Xi Jinping was awarded a third five-year term as leader earlier Friday.Xi, whose administration in recent days has relaunched a campaign to challenge the U.S.-led Western liberal order with warnings of "conflict and confrontation," was credited in a trilateral statement with facilitating the talks through a "noble initiative" and having personally agreed to sponsor the negotiations that lasted from Monday through Friday.READ MORE: Sister of Kim Jong Un warns North Korea ready to act against US, SouthVideos showed Ali Shamkhani, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, meeting with Saudi national security adviser Musaad bin Mohammed al-Aiban and Wang Yi, China's most senior diplomat.The statement calls for reestablishing ties and reopening embassies to happen "within a maximum period of two months."

Alberta will have $13.8M deducted from health transfers because patients paid for services: feds
Canada Health Transfers from provinces, including Alberta, over “patient charges levied during 2020-2021, for medically necessary services that should be accessible to patients at no cost.”A summary posted online by the government of Canada shows Alberta’s deductions will be $13.8 million.Federal health minister Jean-Yves Duclos sent letters to all provinces and territories, expressing concerns about a recent increase in reports of patient charges for medically necessary services, including telemedicine and some private services.“There has been evidence of residents paying out of pocket to access diagnostic services such as ultrasounds, MRI and CT scans — services that should be accessible at no cost,” Duclos said in a statement.“This is not acceptable and will not be tolerated.”“It is critical that access to medically necessary services, whether provided in-person or virtually, remains based on medical need and free of charge.” Read more: Ottawa warns provinces not to charge fees for medically necessary services When asked about this Friday, Alberta Health Minister Jason Copping said he hadn’t seen the letter, hasn’t been fully briefed and didn’t know the amount Alberta would lose.However, he said there has been an “ongoing dispute” about how the transfer system works — what’s allowed and not allowed.“I understand there’s been ongoing conversations about the interpretation of ‘medically necessary’ and payment for medically necessary and how that works in the regulations,” Copping said Friday.He said other provinces are having the same types of discussions with the federal government.“I’m looking forward to actually reviewing the letter … and then discussing it directly with Minister Duclos.”Copping acknowledged there
