TWO CHILDREN SERIOUSLY ILL

Two children seriously ill

AS eight Spaniards hurt in the Omagh atrocity were flown home to Madrid, four Spanish survivors remain in hospitals across Northern Ireland, two of them seriously ill.
They include Marta Ordonez, nine, who is being treated in the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast for 25% burns.
Being treated in the same hospital is Beatriz Puech (11) who suffered head injuries and is in a stable condition.
Also remaining in Northern Ireland are brother and sister, 13-year-old Gonzalo and 15-year-old Teresa Blanco Moya.
Gonzalo is in a serious condition in hospital in Londonderry with burns, a broken leg and cuts to his feet. His sister Teresa has serious eye injuries. It is not known when the four casualties who have remained will be fit enough to travel home.
