We learned today of the shocking news that Rabbi Zvi Kogan, the Chabad Shliach to Abu Dhabi has been missing since Thursday. Israel’s security services suspect that Iranian agents followed him and that he has been kidnapped, or worse. Mossad and the UAE are investigating and are treating it as an act of terror.
Rabbi Kogan has been based in Abu Dhabi since the Abraham Accords in 2020.
This comes nearly 16 years to the date from when Rabbi Gavriel and Rivky Holtzberg, Chabad Shluchim to Mumbai, were murdered by Islamic terrorists. Rabbi Kogan’s wife is the niece of Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, HY”D.
Rabbi Kogan’s brother is a longtime member of the DDF family. He shared with us how his brother dedicates his life to helping Am Yisroel and asks that we have bitachon, there should be tehilim said, and tzedaka given as a zechus for Zvi Hakohen ben Ettel.
You can sign up to do a mitzvah for Zvi here.
You can say Tehilim Perek 29 here, corresponding to Zvi’s age.
