More than four years after Moshe Kleinerman disappeared, Israeli state institutions continue to treat him as a citizen with active civic and military obligations. Kleinerman, who was 16 when he vanished on March 25, 2022, near Mount Meron, has not been seen since. Despite the ongoing mystery and extensive search efforts, the National Insurance Institute has begun sending Kleinerman, now over 18, bills and fines for national insurance payments. The military police also recently visited the Kleinerman family home in Modi'in Illit to locate the teenager, whom they list as a deserter. The family responded to the surprised officers by saying, "We are also looking for him." The IDF stated that draft notices are sent to all eligible individuals, and if they do not report, their whereabouts are investigated. They added that upon understanding the situation at the Kleinerman home, their representatives left and expressed hope that the family would find him soon. Investigations into Kleinerman's disappearance have explored criminal and nationalistic motives, with several suspects arrested and later released due to insufficient evidence.
