Lehi Kornowski Faces Backlash for Praising Actor Ala Daka Amid Controversy

By שיר לוי
Translated & summarized from Srugim by baba
The story · English

Israeli actress Lehi Kornowski sparked controversy after publicly praising actor Ala Daka, known for his roles in "Fauda" and "Tag". Kornowski described Daka as a rare and kind person with exceptional singing and acting talents. However, her post quickly drew sharp criticism from social media users due to Daka's previous statements during the conflict with Iran.

Daka had publicly condemned celebrations in Israel over the destruction in Tehran, questioning the morality of rejoicing over such devastation. He criticized what he saw as emptiness and callousness in the Israeli public's reaction and expressed concern over the lack of voices questioning Israel's conduct. These remarks had already stirred significant debate online, with both supporters and detractors responding strongly.

Following the backlash to Kornowski's supportive post, she deleted it from her social media account. The incident highlights the sensitivity surrounding public figures' comments on the Israel-Iran conflict and the polarized reactions they provoke within Israeli society.
