(CNN)First, Spanish journalist Salud Hernandez went missing while working on a story in Catatumbo, a remote region in northern Colombia with a heavy guerrilla and organized crime presence.
Then Colombian TV network RCN said two of its journalists, correspondent Diego D'Pablos and cameraman Carlos Melo, disappeared in the same region while covering the disappearance of Hernandez.
RCN news director Claudia Gurisatti told CNN en Español on Tuesday that a government human rights official first confirmed the disappearance of her network's journalists.
