Cross-posted from “Israel says rabbi who went missing in the UAE was killed. The government arrests 3” by @gedaliyah@lemmy.world in !jewish@lemmy.world


TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel said Sunday that the body of an Israeli-Moldovan rabbi who went missing in the United Arab Emirates has been found after he was killed in what it described as a “heinous antisemitic terror incident.”

The UAE’s Interior Ministry later said authorities arrested three suspects involved in the killing of Zvi Kogan.

The Emirati government did not respond to a request for comment. However, senior Emirati diplomat Anwer Gargash wrote on the social platform X in Arabic on Sunday that “the UAE will remain a home of safety, an oasis of stability, a society of tolerance and coexistence and a beacon of development, pride and advancement.”

    Nobody cares about your citizens dead while you kill Palestinian. Is just an excuse for them to make UAE the next target list.

      It’s still an innocent civilian who had no part in what’s happening in Gaza. He didn’t deserve this.
