The two French children found abandoned last week in southern Portugal by their mother and her partner will soon be heading to France, according to a statement from the Setúbal District Court to which Euronews had access.
According to the document, French authorities have decided, under the terms of judicial co-operation, to place Zacharie and Barthélemy in the care of the social services in the Alsace region while they assess the suitability of other family members, particularly their father, to look after them.
