According to a Colombian military special forces official, the lives of four children, who were discovered alive in the Amazon jungle over a month after their plane crashed, were saved by consuming cassava flour.

Pedro Arnulfo Sánchez Suárez, a spokesperson, stated that the children relied on consuming approximately three kilograms (six pounds) of farina, a coarse cassava flour commonly used by indigenous tribes in the Amazon region., CNN reports.

The four children, identified as 13-year-old Lesly Jacobombaire Mucutuy, 9-year-old Soleiny Jacobombaire Mucutuy, 4-year-old Tien Ranoque Mucutuy, and infant Cristin Ranoque Mucutuy, are presently recuperating in a hospital in Bogota, the Colombian capital.
