Four children, including an infant, who survived an aircraft crash in Colombia on May 1 and spent the following 40 days in the Columbian Amazon rainforest, were rescued on Friday and flown to the capital Bogota on Saturday. Colombian President Gustavo Petro called the children's journey an "example of absolute survival" and their saga "historic." President Petro claimed that the children were first found by one of the rescue dogs that soldiers took into the jungle.
