Israel officially announced, on Sunday, that the body of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, who has been missing since Thursday in the United Arab Emirates, has been found.
"The UAE intelligence and security authorities have found the body of Zvi Kogan, who has been missing since Thursday," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office and the Israeli Foreign Ministry said in a joint statement.
The statement described Kogan's killing as "a heinous anti-Semitic terrorist act," noting that Israel will do its utmost "until justice is served."
Zvi Kogan, a representative of the Jewish Chabad movement in the Emirates, holds Moldovan citizenship in addition to Israeli citizenship.
There was no immediate comment from the UAE authorities on the Israeli announcement of the rabbi's killing.
