Mali and Lial Yahalomi, who recently returned to Israel, have spoken for the first time about their disappearance, which caused significant public concern. The mother and daughter stated they are going through "the hardest period of our lives" and "never asked for this publicity" or "wanted to cause worry." They are requesting "compassion, time, and quiet" to recover and will share their story when they feel mentally able.
Earlier in the week, it was mistakenly reported by Israeli sources that the two had been arrested in Africa for possessing forged passports. However, they landed at Ben Gurion Airport later that same day. The pair had become an international focus months prior when they vanished during a European vacation and were later located by Israeli police in South America. Following their discovery, they spent several more months traveling abroad before their unexpected return to Israel.
Upon their arrival, both Mali and Lial Yahalomi declined to speak with the numerous media outlets present at the airport. A separate report mentioned an investigation into the police for allegedly violating the privacy of Mali and Lial Yahalomi.
