Israel seeks global aid for release of researcher kidnapped in Iraq

Credited from: APNEWS

  • Israel is actively collaborating with allies to secure the release of Elizabeth Tsurkov, an Israeli-Russian researcher.
  • The push comes nearly two years after Tsurkov was reportedly kidnapped in Iraq while conducting research.
  • Israeli officials convened special envoys from the U.S., U.K., Germany, Austria, and Canada to lobby the Iraqi government.
  • Despite the lack of diplomatic relations with Iraq, Israel hopes to leverage its allies’ connections.
  • No group has officially claimed responsibility for her kidnapping, but Israel suspects Kataib Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed militia, is involved.
