Search for Missing Autistic Boy in Hesse Enters Eighth Day Without Leads

Authorities continue to evaluate reconnaissance images and follow tips nationwide as hopes of finding six-year-old Pawlos alive diminish.

Six-year-old Pawlos Dawit Gerezgiher Guesh disappeared on March 25 after leaving his special needs school in Weilburg, Hesse.
A video shows Pawlos being escorted off a busy road by a passerby before running away; police arrived shortly after but could not locate him.
The Bundeswehr deployed a reconnaissance aircraft to capture high-resolution images, which are currently under evaluation by police.
Search efforts, including land and water operations, persist with reduced personnel, and authorities plan to reassess strategies on April 4.
Despite dwindling hope of finding Pawlos alive, police have pledged to continue the search indefinitely and emphasize the importance of public tips.
