Prime Minister's Office Statement

The Prime Minister's Office, on behalf of the Mossad and the National Security Council.

Zvi Kogan, an Israeli-Moldovan citizen, a Chabad emissary in the UAE.

The Mossad has updated that since his disappearance, and given information indicating that this is a terrorist incident, an active investigation has been going on in the country.

Israeli security and intelligence organizations, concerned for Zvi Kogan’s safety and wellbeing, have been working tirelessly on this case.

This also serves as a reminder that for a while, per the recommendations of the National Security Council (NSC), there has been a level 3 – moderate travel warning issued for the UAE, with a recommendation to avoid any non-essential travel to the country, and for those who are in the country – take extra precautions.
