Hi,
Former Colombian hostage Ingrid Betancourt has been reunited with her children, less than a day after a daring rescue in which she was freed after more than six years in rebel captivity.

 what does this part of this sentence give the meaning that is coloured?
Do you mean 'What does the blue part mean?'

The reunion was less than a day after the rescue.

In the rescue, she was freed.

Before she was freed,  she was a captive for six years.

Best wishes, Clive
