The body of Israeli hiker Ami Yogev, 46, from Modi'in, was located on Mount Olympus in Greece on Friday, three weeks after he went missing. Yogev had been climbing the mountain when contact was lost on September 20. Local rescue forces and numerous volunteers joined the extensive search efforts. Worrying evidence emerged suggesting Yogev may have been injured during his climb. He had last communicated with his mother that morning, stating he was heading for the summit, and later sent a message indicating he had reached a mountain hut. His rented car was found at the base of the mountain, where a severe storm with heavy rain and dense fog had hampered visibility. Search teams, aided by a local guide who saw Yogev shortly before he disappeared, narrowed their focus to two key areas. The challenging, rocky terrain and poor visibility made the search operation particularly difficult and dangerous.
