Actor and singer Idan Amedi’s condition has significantly improved, a day after he was seriously injured in an explosion in central Gaza, Hebrew media reports.

Amedi has regained consciousness and is responsive, with his condition now listed as moderate, the reports say.

The reports are unsourced and a spokesperson for Sheba Medical Center, where Amedi is hospitalized, doesn’t confirm the reports.

However, Avi Issacharoff, a co-writer of TV hit series “Fauda,” in which Amedi plays an elite IDF soldier operating deep in the West Bank and Gaza, tweets that “on such a terrible day, there is a drop of light: Idan has woken up and is responding and his condition is defined as moderate.”
