Israeli Man Missing in Japan for Three Weeks, Police Seek Public Help

Israeli police are seeking public assistance in locating Amir Ambarbar, a 23-year-old from Ramla, who has been missing in Japan for about three weeks. Ambarbar left Israel on April 20, 2026, and entered Japan on August 2, after which his whereabouts became unknown. Following approval from his family, the police released his details and urged anyone with information to contact them immediately.

Ambarbar is described as approximately 1.70 meters tall, slim build, with brown hair and black eyes. The Israeli police have provided contact numbers for the public to report any leads, including the emergency line 100 and the Ramla police station at 08-9279444.

This announcement comes shortly after the successful location of two Israeli women, Mali and Liel Yahalomi, who disappeared in Vienna but were later found in South America. Their case involved coordinated efforts between Israeli police, Europol, and other international law enforcement agencies. The police continue their focused search for Ambarbar and request any relevant information be shared promptly to aid the investigation.
