Children rescued after 40 days in Colombian jungle released from hospital


Bogotá (AFP) – Four Indigenous children who survived 40 days in the Colombian Amazon have been discharged after a month of care in a military hospital. Colombia’s state child protection agency will temporarily have custody of the minors who will be sent to a shelter in a rural area of the country. Siblings Lesly, Soleiny, Tien Noriel and baby Cristin were the only survivors after the small plane they were flying in crashed in the jungle.
