An American cave expert who became ill while he was more than 3,000 feet underground in a cave in Turkey, prompting an international rescue effort, was pulled safely from the cave soon after midnight Tuesday morning local time and immediately brought to a medical tent, the Speleological Federation of Turkey announced in a statement. While he was deep underground, the caver, Mark Dickey, 40, who is himself an expert cave rescuer, suffered gastrointestinal bleeding and lost three liters of blood. Many of them camped out in the cave or near its opening in a remote part of the Taurus Mountains in Turkey. The rescuers began moving Mr. Dickey up the cave on Saturday afternoon, according to the Speleological Federation of Turkey. The teams had to navigate some narrow passages, said Yaman Ozakin, a spokesman affiliated with the Turkish cave rescuers.

ANKARA (Reuters) - An American caver who had become trapped more than 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) underground in southern Turkey has been moved closer to the surface and is expected to be rescued by Tuesday morning, rescuers said. Previous footage from the operation showed Dickey lying inside the cave and receiving treatment by a medical team. It is a very particular phase of the cave here because there are so many slopes it is a bit tricky," Giuseppe Conti, European Cave Rescue Association technical commission chairperson, told reporters. More than 150 rescuers from Turkey and other countries have been working for days to rescue him from the country's third deepest cave. "The rescue operation will continue from the -180 meters after Mark has rested at the camp here for a while.
