The body of Ami Yogev, a 46-year-old Israeli hiker from Modi'in, has been located in Greece after a search lasting several weeks. Yogev had been missing for approximately three weeks after losing contact while climbing Mount Olympus. Local rescue forces and numerous volunteers joined the extensive search efforts.
Contact with Yogev was lost on September 20. Disturbing evidence emerged suggesting he may have been injured during his climb. He had last communicated with his mother that morning, stating he was heading towards 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 his disappearance, narrowed their focus to two key areas. The challenging, rocky terrain and poor visibility made the search operations extremely difficult and dangerous.
