Two minors missing in Tbilisi for second day

Authorities in Tbilisi are continuing the search for two missing children who disappeared after leaving school on Monday.

According to family members, the children – both pupils at Public School No. 31 in the Georgian capital – were last seen shortly after 2 p.m. They reportedly left the school grounds but never returned home.

Relatives identified one of the missing children as Barbara Lapachi, a sixth-grade student. A family member shared a message on social media urging the public to assist in the search.

The second child, identified only as Tekla, was also reported missing by relatives, who issued a similar appeal online – “Tekla is missing. If you see her anywhere, please write to me.”
