Cavers rescued from North Clare cave

Three people have been rescued from a cave near Doolin after getting trapped while exploring the area last night.

A major rescue operation was launched after the cavers ran the GardaĆ­ from a mobile phone to report that they were getting into difficulty, breakingnews.ie reports.

The cave had become cut off due to rising flood waters, but a garda spokesperson says the trapped cavers have been found safe and well.
