Members of the Colombian security forces and volunteers from seven Indigenous communities take part in the search for four lost Indigenous children believed to have survived a plane crash three weeks ago at the edge of the Amazon rainforest. Rescue efforts include studying satellite imagery, tossing pamphlets from helicopters and appealing to jungle spirits for help, the presidency said. 

More than 160 members of the security forces are taking part in the search by land and air, as well as volunteers from seven Indigenous communities familiar with jungle terrain.According to the presidency, the Indigenous participants are engaging in "spiritual processes that include speaking to the jungle and asking that it speak back" to help find the missing children
