Police are searching for a 5-year-old boy who has disappeared from a playground in the Moscow suburb of Mytishchi, the Interior Ministry said late Sunday.
The boy's mother told police that her son and other children ran around the corner of the building during a game, causing her to lose sight of them temporarily, around 5 p.m. on Sunday.
When the children came back, the woman's son was not with them, a spokesman for the Moscow region branch of the Interior Ministry told the Interfax news agency.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
