Rabbi who went missing in UAE was murdered, Israel says | BBC News

Israel says a rabbi who went missing in the United Arab Emirates has been murdered, and have vowed to track down his killers.

“The murder of Zvi Kogan is a criminal antisemitic terrorist incident," PM Benjamin Netanyahu's office said.

Rabbi Kogan, an envoy of the orthodox Jewish organisation Chabad, had been missing in Dubai since Thursday.

His body was recovered after his abandoned car was found an hour's drive away from his home.

45000 Gazans are not a worrying issue for BBC but this one is

[meemawo]

so funny that they haven't included that he's also an IDF soldier

[BoxingParadise]

Yeah nobody’s buying this, Netanyahu is becoming desperate 😂

[abdul_thegreat]

Blaming Iran for everything is getting ridiculous

[nickmanning]

OMG! This story is definitely equal to 45, 000 woman and children being murdered.

[AktarMiah-jbrr]

What's this now BBC or Israeli news 🙄

[Khan-xy-zi]

Antisemitic game won't work any more for west

It's that time again when BBC has to put a few sob stories on for their paymaster

[AdamJohnson-hq]

It is said he was an officer in an elite Israeli battalion before retiring and migrating to an Arab country to make a living! Hilarious!

[eleidal]

Once again, you take Israel’s word at face value and turn it uncritically into a story, at a time when nothing its regime says should be trusted.

[maatejow]

convenient to show the picture where he is not in his IDF military uniform.

May his soul rest in peace. What about the Gazans and Palestinians murdered in Gaza and Occupied West Bank? Should their murderers be also termed as anti Semitic or Islamophobic? Should their murdered be hunted down? Will Israel allow their murderers be hunted down?

[anthonyuremeh]

[teflerchina.]

A guy from Moldova who happened to be Jewish and went to the UAE using his Moldovan passport. He was also a resident there with his U.S wife.
Why is everything anti-Semitic when it comes to Jewish people yet not when it comes to Arabs who are also Semites?
Three people have already been arrested for suspected kidnapping and murder.

If he was under surveillance, they didn’t kill just a regular shopsman. He was being watched. But you won’t say what you had him doing out there….
