On camera, 'Fauda' star Idan Amedi can be heard stating, "You'll notice that I'm wearing a somewhat different outfit today. That's not a Fauda scenario, by the way.”
He said further, "Our army was called up on Saturday morning as events in the south of Israel began. All I wanted to tell you is that, alongside horrifying and vicious attacks, where our friends and loved ones were murdered, our morale remains high. "We fully comprehend why we are here. We are here to protect our children, our families, and our homes. We will not surrender until we win."
Amedi's decision to leave the entertainment industry and join the military shows a tremendous feeling of responsibility and unity at a time of hardship.
