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.”

    It is bigoted to speculate that the victim of a crime was a bad person based on their religion, ethnicity, or nationality.

    It is misinformation to theorize that there is a coverup or someone is a patsy in the absence of any evidence to support it.
