The government of President Gustavo Petro announced the plan Thursday. Deputy Minister of Multilateral Affairs Elizabeth Taylor Jay told reporters the children would travel with their families to Colombia for rehabilitation. She did not provide additional details, including the number of children who would receive treatment and when they would arrive in Colombia.
