Overview
- Alisya, 16, and Sarah, 12, vanished from the Ofh Hope community on the night of June 6–7, 2026 and investigators opened a probe for child abduction and abandonment.
- Search teams have shifted efforts toward trails above Civitella Alfedena and the Lago di Barrea area after a doctor found a red hair clip on a path roughly 300–400 meters from the facility.
- The clip, a technical female shirt and a black lace have been seized and sent for laboratory DNA and forensic tests but officials and the civil group Penelope warn that ownership and timing of the finds remain unconfirmed.
- Investigators are also following three telephone lines tied to people in the girls’ network that went inactive days ago and prosecutors say it is probable the sisters are with someone providing help.
- Ground searches use helicopters, drones, canine units and underwater teams while Penelope asks local shops to report gluten‑free purchases and authorities continue to collect tips and verify witness reports of two suspicious men.
