The hero oldest sister of four indigenous children who disappeared into the depths of the Amazon rainforest has told how she kept her three brothers alive for 40 days.
Lesly, 13 , looked after boys Soleiny, nine, Tien Noriel, four, and 10-month-old baby Cristin in the Colombian jungle after their plane crashed on May 1. Their mum Magdalena Mucutui Valencia, the pilot and an indigenous leader were all killed when the Cessna light aircraft plummeted on to the forest floor - but the children miraculously survived.
As reported by the Mirror, Columbia gave a sigh of relief on Friday as the anxiety that wracked the country for six weeks came to an end. The Armed Forces confirmed they had found the kids - and although they were starving, dehydrated and covered in insect bites, they were otherwise unharmed.
