Some 1,200 volunteers joined efforts yesterday to find a 9-year-old girl from the northern city of Safed who has been missing for almost a week, Channel 12 reports.

The outlet says that police still do not have any solid leads on Haymanut Kasau’s whereabouts.

The girl was last seen in security footage at 7:45 p.m. last Sunday handing out municipal election leaflets outside the Jewish Agency absorption center, where she has lived for the past three years since immigrating with her family from Ethiopia.

According to a description, Kasau stands at 1.20 meters (3’11”) and is slim with dark hair and dark eyes. She was wearing pink pants, a black skirt, and a white shirt at the time of her disappearance.
