Majdi Halabi is an Israeli Druze Israel Defense Forces soldier who was born in Daliyat el-Karmel in 1985. He disappeared while on duty near Haifa on May 24, 2005 (age 19) and for the next several days, over a hundred volunteers searched in vain for Halabi in the Mount Carmel area. He was declaired Missing in Action on June 6.

The Born to Freedom Foundation offered a reward of $10,000,000 for information leading to Halabi's location.

In 2007, The Jerusalem Post interviewed Halabi's uncle Samih Halabi, who believes his nephew was abducted by an Islamic terrorist organization and is being held in Syria, Lebanon, or perhaps in Nablus or Jenin.

On July 2, 2008, an inmate in Damon Prison said Halabi was being held in Nablus but police officials said the inmate had no substantial information about Halabi's disappearance.
