Happy to hear this and hope they could get the remainder out asap and on a plane to Moscow.

This is the news story I have looked forward to reading the last couple of days. It is the one I look for first. I started yesterday with a smile when I read the good news and am thrilled that today's is just as good. I am looking forward to a happy report tomorrow and the next day. It is strange that I am so happy about something that has no impact on me whatsoever. It is probably because it is an example of humanity at it's best.

I hope they get the remaining five out safely.

Nice gesture, but I doubt the kids will be up for a trip to Russia quite so soon.

I thought "on a plane to Moscow" was the punchline to a political gag, until I recalled that FIFA offered to give them tickets to the WC final. What are the odds of the parents signing off on another extracurricular event, I wonder?

It's a nice gesture by FIFA, but I think the LAST thing these boys want to do is get into another confined space with limited oxygen (a plane). Perhaps better for the eventual winning WC team to visit them in Thailand after the tournament? At least send them uniforms and signed balls...
