Mali and Liel Yahalomi have broken their silence for the first time since returning to Israel nearly a week ago, addressing their highly publicized disappearance two months prior. "We are in the hardest period of our lives, having gone through very complex days," they stated. The sisters emphasized their need for privacy, saying, "When we feel mentally capable, we will share our story." They clarified that they never sought the attention and did not wish to cause worry, requesting compassion, time, and quiet to rebuild their lives.
The Yahalomi sisters' disappearance caused a national stir when they lost contact with family for several days during a trip to Austria. After extensive searches, they were located in Argentina, with subsequent indications suggesting their disappearance was voluntary. They returned to Israel last Wednesday after two months abroad.
Two days prior to their statement, the Head of the Privacy Protection Authority at the Ministry of Justice, Gilaad Samma, instructed the Police Commissioner, Daniyel Levi, and the Internal Privacy Supervisor, George Kiverkian, to investigate whether information about the sisters was published in violation of their privacy.
