Israeli-Moldovan Rabbi Found Murdered in UAE After Disappearance

Authorities allege Iran's involvement in the killing, calling it an act of antisemitic terrorism.

The body of an Israeli-Moldovan rabbi, missing since Thursday, was discovered in Al-Ain, UAE, on Saturday.
The rabbi, who ran a kosher supermarket in Dubai, was reportedly targeted by three Uzbek nationals allegedly acting on behalf of Iran.
Israeli officials have labeled the murder an act of antisemitic terrorism and accused Iran of orchestrating the attack.
The suspects are believed to have fled to Turkey after the killing, and investigations are ongoing to determine the exact timeline of events.
The incident has strained ties between Israel and the UAE, which normalized relations in 2020 under the Abraham Accords.
