The story · English

Since returning from captivity, Emily Damari has become one of the most intriguing and talked-about figures in Israel. Now she is making another huge leap, this time in advertising. Damari has been chosen to lead her first campaign, with an estimated value of no less than NIS 5 million.

Damari and content creator Daniel Amit were chosen to lead the launch campaign for The Park Design's new lifestyle complex. This is the pair's first joint campaign, and it is expected to go live soon on television, digital platforms and additional media.

Beyond the campaign itself, the figure drawing the most attention is the unusual sum behind it, NIS 5 million. The sharp transition from the difficult period she went through in captivity to one of the biggest and most talked-about advertising deals of the period is generating many reactions online.

In recent months, Damari has gradually returned to public life, shared many personal moments, and also revealed her relationship and engagement to Daniel Amit. Now, with a major first prime-time campaign, she appears to be marking another big step on her new path.
