(JNS) Israeli actor Idan Amedi, best known for his role in the Netflix hit show “Fauda,” will be released from hospital on Tuesday, according to a statement issued on his behalf that was shared with local media.
Amedi, 35, sustained serious wounds while serving in a reserve combat engineering unit in the Gaza Strip some two weeks ago. An explosion left him unconscious for days, with shrapnel in his eye sockets, jaw and neck.
The actor is expected to start home rehabilitation following his release from Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer in Ramat Gan.
Amedi was initially scheduled to hold a press conference on Monday to answer questions about his rehabilitation and future plans. However, the presser was cancelled after the Israel Defense Forces announced that three soldiers had been killed during fighting in the southern Gaza Strip.
