Red Cross urges Colombia’s FARC to release child soldiers

(Colombia Reports) – The head of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) called on Colombia’s Marxist FARC rebel group to speed up the release of the child soldiers among their ranks, in an interview with El Tiempo.“We must move from word to action in the case of the FARC children,” Christoph Harnisch said. He added that “[he has] faith that the process will be done quickly” if the FARC cooperate. The ICRC will fully support the process surrounding the release of the child soldiers, along with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
