Rabbi Zvi Kogan, a dual citizen of Israel and Moldova, was abducted and murdered in the UAE, which Israeli officials labeled an act of terrorism.
The killing of Rabbi Kogan highlights the risks faced by the growing Israeli and Jewish community in the UAE, especially amid rising regional tensions.
Chabad-Lubavitch expressed deep sorrow over Rabbi Kogan’s murder and emphasized that the community's outreach efforts would continue despite the tragedy.
