   MEMORANDUM

Ada Teresa Carrillo Moreno and her two children, natives and citizens of Colombia, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) denial of their motion to reopen and remand their asylum cases based on changed circumstances in Colombia. We have jurisdiction pursuant to former 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a). See Kalaw v. INS, 133 F.3d 1147, 1150 (9th Cir.1997). We review the denial of a motion to reopen for an abuse of discretion. See Konstantinova v. INS, 195 F.3d 528, 529 (9th Cir. 1999). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

The evidence that Petitioners introduced, articles describing the escalating violence in Colombia, was too general to demonstrate a well-founded fear that they would personally be persecuted upon return to Colombia. See id. at 530.

We lack jurisdiction over the BIA’s order summarily affirming the Immigration Judge’s denial of asylum. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) (petition for review must be filed no later than 30 days after the date of the final order of removal).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part, and DISMISSED in part.
