Israeli actor and singer Isan Amedi, best known for his role in the hit Netflix series Fauda,got badly injured while he was fighting for his nation against Hamas. However, the actor is doing fine now and has been released from the ICU.
As perreports, the actor was shifted to the trauma department at Sheba Medical Centre in Ramat Gan city after sustaining brutal injuries from shrapnel. The actor has been serving as an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reservist in the Combat Engineering Corps.
On Monday (January 8), the actor was airlifted to the hospital in an unconscious condition, and surgery was performed on him. He regained consciousness hours later.
Before getting injured, the actor gave a brief overview of his work in an interview as he spoke about the tunnels built by Hamas. “We found kilometers of tunnels here, weaponry, even special weaponry. We’ve been busy the past two days trying to destroy it,” Amedi told a Channel 12 correspondent via Variety.
Born into a family of Kurdish immigrants, Amedi, 35, joined the Israeli forces to fight against the Palestinian militant group Hamas in October last year.
Amedi, who was raised in Jerusalem, shot to fame as a singer-songwriter. However, he became known worldwide after he played the role of an undercover agent, Sagi Tzur, in the Netflix series Fauda.
