The body of Ami Yogev, an Israeli who went missing in Greece weeks ago, was found on Friday. The 46-year-old had embarked on a solo hiking trip in the Mount Olympus region and lost contact with his family. According to his family, Yogev began his hike from the Prionia parking area, heading up the trail. His last communication was a photo sent to his mother, reportedly taken after the second rest stop on the E4 trail.
Yogev's mother, Shosh Debi, told Kan News two weeks prior that her son was on his first-ever trek, alone, and without travel insurance. In a separate interview, she revealed that Yogev had traveled to Greece seeking employment. He had rented a car and planned to explore the country before looking for work.
Debi recounted that her son informed her he was going to climb Mount Olympus. He sent her a photo from the first stop, mentioning he would sleep there. The following morning, he sent another picture from the second stop before continuing towards the summit, after which all contact was lost.
