'Fauda' Actor Idan Amedi Seriously Injured in Gaza Conflict

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken emphasizes need to protect civilians as Israel faces genocide case in international court

Idan Amedi, an Israeli actor known for his role in the Netflix series 'Fauda', has been seriously injured while fighting for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in Gaza.
Amedi joined the IDF after the war broke out on October 7 and was injured during a battle in Gaza's Khan Younis.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other top Israeli officials in Tel Aviv, emphasizing the importance of avoiding further civilian harm and protecting civilian infrastructure in Gaza.
Israel's military campaign in Gaza has reportedly killed at least 22,000 people, mostly women and children, according to Hamas.
Israel is set to appear before the International Court of Justice this week in a case accusing it of breaching its obligations under the UN's Genocide Convention in its war on Hamas.
