Missing Israeli women left Austria voluntarily, investigators say

Austrian investigators have announced a dramatic development in the case of two missing Israeli women, stating that both Mali Yehalom, 50, and her daughter Liel, 23, left the country of their own accord. The announcement marks a significant turn in what had been treated as a disappearance investigation since the women went missing in Austria. Authorities have been searching for the pair and had launched a formal investigation into the circumstances of their absence. The investigators’ statement suggests the case may not involve foul play as previously feared, though questions remain about the women’s whereabouts and reasons for departing Austria. The development comes after weeks of concern for the missing Israeli nationals, with their family and authorities conducting an extensive search across the country.
