Two years after nine-year-old Haymanut Kasau disappeared from Safed, there has been little progress in the investigation. Haymanut, who immigrated from Ethiopia with her family in 2021, was last seen on security camera footage near an absorption center on February 25, 2024. Despite early search efforts, her whereabouts remain unknown.

Her parents have repeatedly criticized authorities, saying not enough has been done to find their daughter and insisting that evidence points to an abduction. Activists have renewed public attention by posting signs ברחבי the country asking, 'Where is Haymanut?' Lawmakers are set to hold both closed and open meetings to review the case.

In December, her father expressed deep frustration, saying he felt ashamed of the state and urging broader public action to help locate his child. In January, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with the family and pledged his personal involvement in efforts to resolve the case.
