Authorities in the United Arab Emirates announced the arrest of three suspects linked to the alleged murder of an Israeli citizen, as confirmed by the Emirati interior ministry on Sunday, November 24. While details regarding the arrested individuals and potential charges have not been disclosed, the ministry emphasized its commitment to utilizing its full legal capabilities to address any actions that may jeopardize public order and societal stability.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has described the recent incident involving Zvi Kogan, a 28-year-old rabbi, as a "heinous antisemitic terrorist act." Kogan, who was also a Moldovan national and a resident of the UAE, was associated with the New York-based Orthodox Jewish Chabad movement. He was reported missing earlier in the week, with local authorities announcing the discovery of his body on Sunday, further intensifying calls for justice from the Israeli government.
