Concerns are mounting for the safety of Lidan Araba, a 31-year-old Israeli man from Kfar Yona, who has gone missing in Madrid. Araba, who is married with three children, was on a private vacation in the Spanish capital with friends. He was last seen on Tuesday evening. His disappearance has become a serious concern after he failed to appear at Madrid's airport on Wednesday for his scheduled flight back to Israel. All contact with Araba was lost after his last known communication on Tuesday evening, and initial search efforts have yielded no results.

According to information released by the ZAKA International Rescue Unit, Araba was staying at The Edition hotel. He is described as being 1.70 meters tall, with black hair and a beard, and a noticeable tattoo on his arm. He was reportedly wearing a white shirt when last seen. ZAKA emphasized that the circumstances of his disappearance, coupled with his missed flight, raise grave concerns for his life.

ZAKA teams are coordinating with relevant authorities and assisting in managing the search and scanning efforts in various locations across the city.

ZAKA has issued an urgent appeal to Israelis currently in Madrid and its surrounding areas to assist in the search. Anyone who has seen Araba, has information about his whereabouts, or can help with the search is urged to contact ZAKA's emergency hotline immediately.
