Cheers erupted at a local government office where dozens of volunteers and journalists were awaiting updates on the success of the intricate and high-risk mission.
People on the street cheered and clapped when ambulances ferrying the last of the boys arrived at the city's hospital.
Chinese volunteer divers who joined the rescue mission called it a "tremendous and very dangerous operation."
According to rescue operation officials, the cave would then be closed.
