Israel has pledged to bring to justice those responsible for the murder of a prominent rabbi in the United Arab Emirates, denouncing his killing as a “heinous antisemitic terrorist act”.
Zvi Kogan, who ran a Kosher shop in Dubai and worked for the Orthodox Jewish group Chabad, vanished in Dubai on Thursday. The 28-year-old’s body was found in the city of Al Ain, which borders Oman, though it is not clear if he was killed there or elsewhere.
The UAE’s interior ministry said three suspects had been arrested, but gave no details.
His disappearance came as Iran, which supports Hamas and Hezbollah, had been threatening to retaliate after a wave of airstrikes Israel carried out in October in response to an Iranian ballistic missile attack.
The Iranian embassy in the UAE said it “categorically rejects the allegations of Iran’s involvement in the murder of this individual”.
