There are no indication about the causes.
Athird source (linked above) tgcom24 instead reports that the divers entered in a small cave at 10 mt and were unable to egress. They were immediatly located due to the smb being tied outside the cave and only one body was recovered because of the silt that was making unsafe for non cave rescuer to attempt recovery.
Names are mentioned in the online version of the newspaper linked here.
I am an Italian certified cave diver, I am apalled by the superficiality with which expert divers, instructors, lead less experienced divers to their doom especially in my country this is at least the third episode in the same number of years.
Very sad to see it happen, particularly to a 13 year old child. Please do stay away from caves if not certified or lead by a certified instructor during a cave course. Please avoid trust me dives. I am guilty, I did a trust me dive just prior to start my cave training ... only after training I fully understood the risks involved. These incidents are a clear warning to anybody willing to venture beyond the limits of their training.
