The siblings were found on Friday in Caqueta province after weeks of searching by the military, Indigenous communities and others, and were initially treated by military medics before being transported to a military hospital in capital Bogota. "In general the boy and the girls are in an acceptable state. According to the medical reports they are out of danger," Defense Minister Ivan Velasquez said during a press conference after the visit."They are very thin but I know they're in good hands," the children's great-uncle Fidencio Valencia told journalists as he left the hospital. "We never expected to find them so well.
Clues as to the siblings' whereabouts have been reported for weeks as the search, dubbed Operation Hope, continued.
