UAE official pays respects to Rabbi Zvi Kogan during shiva

A senior UAE official attended the shiva of a slain Chabad emissary on Friday, emphasizing the country’s commitment to coexistence and condemning the attack as an act of extremism.

Dr. Ali Rashid Al Nuaimi, a senior member of the Federal National Council of the United Arab Emirates and Chairman of the Defense, Home and Foreign Affairs Committee, attended the shiva of Rabbi Zvi Kogan to personally express his condolences to the grieving family. The tragic murder of Rabbi Kogan has shocked local and global communities.

During his visit, Al Nuaimi reiterated the UAE’s commitment to peace and mutual respect among its diverse communities. “The UAE will never allow extremists to divide us. “Today, more than ever, our country and its people are committed to the values of openness and peace,” he said, pledging to honor Kogan’s legacy by promoting harmony among all communities in the UAE.

Murder investigation

The UAE Interior Ministry identified three Uzbek nationals as suspects in Rabbi Kogan’s murder. Olimpi Tohirovich, Makhmudjon Abdurrahim and Azizi Kamilovich have been arrested and are being investigated for their alleged involvement in what Emirati authorities have described as a potential “terrorist incident”.

Kogan, an Israeli-Moldovan citizen and resident of the United Arab Emirates, had worked with the Chabad movement to support Jewish community life in the Gulf region. He was reported missing by his family and later found dead in Al Ain, about 90 minutes from Dubai.

The prime minister’s office in Israel condemned the killing as a “heinous act of anti-Semitic terrorism,” and Israeli authorities have been cooperating with Emirati officials, including the Mossad, in the ongoing investigation.

Former Israeli minister Ayoob Kara suspected possible Iranian involvement in the attack, although Iranian officials denied this accusation. Israeli officials are now raising concerns about the possibility of similar attacks on Jews and Israelis in other countries.
