U.S. National Security Council spokesperson Sean Savett released a statement Sunday condemning the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, who had been missing in the United Arab Emirates since Nov. 21.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office confirmed on Sunday Kogan's body was located by authorities.

Kogan, 28, was an Israeli-Moldovan national and managed a kosher grocery store in Dubai.

"We condemn in the strongest terms the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan in the UAE and our prayers are with his family, the Chabad-Lubavitch community, the broader Jewish community, and all who are mourning his loss," Savett said.

"This was a horrific crime against all those who stand for peace, tolerance, and coexistence," Savett added.

The U.S. is working with Israeli and UAE authorities, according to the statement.

Three people have been arrested for the murder in the UAE, according to the country's Interior Ministry, which has stated an investigation is ongoing.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was holding a meeting with security officials on Sunday night regarding ongoing Lebanon cease-fire talks, an Israeli official told ABC News.

The development comes after Netanyahu met last week in Israel with U.S. Special Envoy Amos Hochstein and discussed a possible cease-fire in Lebanon. Hochstein also traveled to Beirut, Lebanon, to discuss a cease-deal between Hezbollah and Israel.
