A plane carrying the body of Chabad Rabbi Zvi Kogan, who was murdered in the United Arab Emirates, is on its way to Israel, an Israeli rescue and recovery group says.
“At this moment, his coffin has been placed on a flight to Israel,” Zaka says in a statement referring to Kogan, 28, who had been based in the UAE as a representative of the Chabad Hasidic movement.
Chabad says Kogan’s funeral will take place at 11 p.m. at the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem.
