Body of missing Chabad rabbi found in UAE; Israel: ‘Despicable antisemitic act of terror’

Emirati authorities have found the body of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, the Prime Minister’s Office and Foreign Ministry say in a joint statement.

Kogan, a Chabad rabbi in the UAE, had been missing since Thursday.

Israel’s embassy in Abu Dhabi has been in contact contact with Kogan’s family in the UAE, says the statement. Family members living Israel have also been updated.

Israel calls the murder “a despicable antisemitic act of terror,” and pledges to use all available means to bring the killers to justice.

Kogan is a dual Israeli-Moldovan citizen, and has been part of the Abu Dhabi Chabad chapter since Israel normalized ties with the UAE in late 2020.

Kogan is related to Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, who was murdered along with his wife in a terror attack at the Nariman Chabad House in Mumbai in 2008, Channel 12 news reported.

It's unfortunate that Jewish people continue to face death-related persecution on the basis of their religion or ethnicity. Does that even make sense, being persecuted on the basis of one's ethnicity and towards death?

Jewish people are strong.

@Watcharena, I'm not a politician, neither do I give a hoot about wars, but one thing is clear, Jewish people, even before current Islamists got their own hot, were often hated, and not because of what they did, but just because they were born Jewish, and that's what I'm about.

Everybody knows Iran is not against Israel only because of land, but deeply mostly of religion.

So historically, for such ages, Jewish people are strong.

Oh, and Iranian scientists? Targeted because directly contributing to the war against state of Israel.
And this rabbi, how is he directly related to the war? But, but because he is Jewish.
