Russian Man Sentenced to 2 Years After 13-Year-Old Daughter Draws Antiwar Picture
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Russia, a man whose 13-year-old daughter drew an antiwar picture at
school was sentenced to two years in prison in a case that has sparked
international outrage. Alexei Moskalyov, however, has apparently escaped
his house arrest, and authorities said Tuesday his whereabouts were
unknown. His daughter, whose drawing featured a Ukrainian mother and
child under Russian missiles, was removed from her home and put in a
shelter.
