Chabad memorialized murdered United Arab Emirates emissary Rabbi Zvi Kogan at the annual International Conference of Shluchim in Edison, New Jersey, on Monday.

UAE Chabad-Lubavitch director Rabbi Levi Duchman called for his 6,500 colleagues from 110 countries to continue their work as Kogan would have desired.

The Conference connected a live feed to share words of comfort with Kogan's family in Jerusalem, according to a press release.

At the closing gala, the rabbis and emissaries danced with a Torah that was being donated to the UAE Jewish community in Kogan's memory.
