Family Urges Continued Search for Missing Israeli Mother and Daughter in Vienna
A week after losing contact with Mally and Liel Yahalomi in Vienna, their family has appealed to the public and security agencies to persist in the search and consider all possibilities, including terrorism. The family described the loss of contact as highly unusual, emphasizing Mally's role as a devoted mother and grandmother and Liel as a bright, sensitive young woman full of life. They expressed gratitude to the Israeli public, media, and security organizations assisting in the search, including the Friends for Rescue organization and Magen company.
The family demands that security and investigative bodies thoroughly examine all scenarios until terrorism is conclusively ruled out based on evidence. They continue to fund and conduct search efforts independently and implore everyone not to stop searching or sharing information to help bring Mally and Liel home safely.
Concern grew when the two did not respond to messages after the Sabbath ended. Investigations revealed their mobile phones were tracked near Vienna's train station on Saturday morning, a puzzling detail given their observance of the Sabbath. Authorities are reviewing surveillance footage to determine if the mother and daughter boarded a train that day. The case remains open as search and investigative efforts continue in Vienna.
