On August 18, he stopped by the offices of *Khabarovsk Vesti*.

A Belarusian man, Roman Krupa, has gone missing in Khabarovsk, Russia. This was reported by local media and the Belarusian search-and-rescue team “Simuran”.

Roman Krupa, 43, traveled to the Far East from Mozyr, Belarus, for a work shift, according to "Derkzy Khabarovsk". A few days ago, the man began to feel unwell and went to a local clinic for an appointment. The doctor saw no reason to hospitalize him and sent him back out onto the street. After that, Roman went missing.

He did not return to his dormitory, his phone is not answering, and he has not been in contact with his relatives since. According to Amur Mash, on August 18, the Belarusian man stopped by the editorial office of “Khabarovsk Vesti”—he asked for water and inquired about how to get to the Belarusian embassy (the city has a branch of the Belarusian diplomatic mission).

According to staff members, he looked strange—as if he were in a daze and not thinking clearly. The man said that everything had been stolen from him. They drew him a map showing the route, after which he left. It was only later that journalists learned from the news that Roman was wanted.

The Belarusian police and volunteers are already searching for him.
