Surviving 40 days in the Amazon: Four children found alive after plane crash.
TL;DR
Four children, aged 13, 9, 4, and 1, have been found alive in Colombia's Amazon jungle more than a month after their plane crashed. The children's mother, a pilot, and a co-pilot died in the crash. The children belong to the Huitoto indigenous group, and their survival skills and knowledge of fruits helped them survive. The children were found by members of the military and Indigenous community and are now receiving medical attention. Colombia's president called it a "magical day" and a "joy for the whole country."
