Tragedy in UAE: Jewish Leader's Murder Sparks International Outcry

United Arab EmiratesMon Nov 25 2024
The murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan in the United Arab Emirates has sparked global condemnation. The National Security Council (NSC) strongly denounced the crime, expressing solidarity with Rabbi Kogan's family, the Chabad-Lubavitch community, and all those impacted by the loss. This heinous act stands against everything that advocates for peace, tolerance, and coexistence. The UAE, a country that condemns violent extremism, experienced this incident as an assault on its principles. The United States is closely collaborating with both Israeli and UAE authorities to support the investigation. The UAE has made quick progress, already apprehending suspects. Those behind this crime must face justice, as must any who support them. This tragic event underscores the ongoing global struggle against extremism.
