Note reportedly left by former MAG Tomer Yerushalmi: ‘Take care of yourselves’

Former IDF military advocate general Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi left what appeared to be a suicide note before abandoning her car and disappearing for several hours earlier today at a beach near Tel Aviv, Hebrew outlets report.

Police had reportedly tracked her personal phone number to the area, but remain unable to find the cellphone itself.

There are conflicting reports as to what the note said, as well as where it was found. Channel 13 and the Kan public broadcaster report that it was found in her car, while Ynet and Channel 12 report that it was at her home.

The complete text of the note does not appear to be printed in any of the publications. Channel 12 reports that the note read, “I love you, take care of yourselves.” According to Ynet, it said, “Don’t look back.”

The ex-IDF legal chief resigned from her post Friday and confessed that she had been behind the leak of surveillance footage depicting the alleged abuse of a Gazan detainee by several soldiers at the Sde Teiman detention facility.

She went missing earlier today, but was found in Herzliya, reportedly after contacting her husband, who guided police to her location.

Police and IDF forces had spent hours searching for her along the coast near Tel Aviv. A police source speaking earlier to Channel 12 said that Tomer-Yerushlami would arrive for interrogation immediately after her physical check-up.

He confirmed to the outlet that “at this moment it is not known to us where her personal phone is. We understand that it has ‘disappeared.'”

A Tel Aviv police spokesman has yet to respond to a request for comment.
