PHUKET, Thailand (26 Dec 2004) -- Some 80 divers and snorkelers trapped in Emerald Cave on Ko Muk island have been rescued.

A Malaysian couple was killed when they were forced into the cave along with other snorkelers and divers by the huge tsunami that hit Thailand. Their three children, who were also pushed into the cave were found alive.

Among the rescued, many were injured as turbulent water battered them against the walls of the renowned 80-meter long limestone cave.

Several of the injured were hospitalized in serious condition.
