Four indigenous children who went missing for more than a month in the Colombian Amazon jungle after a plane crash have reportedly been found alive. 

The brothers, aged 11 months, four, nine and 13, had been travelling in a light aircraft on May 1 when the plane is believed to have failed. 

The crash killed the children’s mother Magdalena Mucutui Valencia, as well as the pilot and an indigenous leader. 

There were no signs of the youngsters when the aircraft’s wreckage was recovered by the Colombian military – igniting a massive search operation in the southeast of the country to find them.

Now the children have been found alive, according to military sources quoted by the Columbian press.
