Bogotá.- The four crew members of the Jupiter ship, missing since the beginning of May in Caribbean waters, were found alive and are in stable condition, according to Ramiro Lozano, brother of the Colombian captain Henry Lozano, reported this Saturday. "They were found by the Mexicans. They are stable," Lozano assured EFE, who added that rescue operations are currently ongoing, without further details being known at this time about the exact location of the discovery or the conditions in which the vessel was found. The Jupiter, with a Dominican flag, had set sail on May 4th from Manzanillo, in the north of the Dominican Republic, bound for Cartagena de Indias, in Colombia, on a journey that was supposed to last between five and six days. On board were the Colombian captain Henry Lozano and the Dominican crew members Joselito Antonio Paulino, José Aristides Ureña Díaz and Miguel Ramón Ureña Ruiz.

Family members reported this week the lack of information about the whereabouts of the vessel and asked for support from the authorities of Colombia and other countries in the region to intensify their search, after a report was released on May 18 stating that the ship was adrift near Serranilla, in coordinates near Honduras. For the moment, the maritime authorities of the countries involved have not officially commented on the discovery or the circumstances in which the four crew members were found.
