Rabbi Tzvi Kogen, the Chabad emissary in Abu Dhabi, has been missing since last Thursday, with no communication since then. Over recent days, as the investigation into his disappearance intensifies, concerns are growing that he may have been kidnapped or killed. Reports suggest that hostile elements might be related, and Iranian involvement is also under investigation.
Israeli authorities are investigating potential connections between Kogen's disappearance and terrorist organizations. His family alerted security officials that he had not been in contact for several days, prompting the immediate launch of a joint investigation with the Mossad and UAE security forces.
The Mossad has stated that Tzvi Kogen has been missing since Thursday afternoon and, following his disappearance and in light of information suggesting a terrorist act, an intensive investigation has begun. A Level 3 travel warning (medium threat) has also been issued for the UAE, advising against non-essential travel to the country from Israel.
In recent days, as multiple parties work to uncover leads in the Chabad emissary's disappearance, fears have surfaced that hostile elements had been monitoring him before he vanished. The possibility that this was a nationalist-motivated attack is now being closely examined, with the investigation focusing on this scenario.
