Israel Mordechai Stern, 25, of Bnei Brak, who has special needs, has been missing since Thursday. The Shomrei Mishpat organization reports an emergency command center is operating in coordination with police, and volunteers are being called in.
The search for Israel Mordechai Stern, 25, a Bnei Brak resident with special needs missing since Thursday, has entered its second full day as of Sunday. Shomrei Mishpat reported establishing an emergency command center Saturday night to coordinate volunteer sweeps with police, who confirmed the operation is active. The organization is urgently calling for additional volunteers to join the effort.
As The Zioneer reported Thursday at 22:57 Jerusalem, police first asked the public for help locating Stern. Within the same hour, the Shomrei Mishpat organization (originally identified by its Oni Shiach unit) opened an emergency command center, stating Stern had been missing over 24 hours and expressing concern for his life. By the next update, also at 22:57 Jerusalem, the group had formalized the command center and broadened the volunteer call. All three earlier versions of this story carried the same timestamp, reflecting a rapid sequence of developments Thursday night.
According to Shomrei Mishpat, the search is being coordinated directly with Israel Police. The Zioneer previously reported that concern for Stern's life remains high.
As of Sunday at 00:15 Jerusalem, police have not issued an update on Stern's condition or the status of the search, nor has there been a confirmed sighting. The public is being asked to report any information to police.
