The home of stand-up comedian Daniel Chen (“Bad Boy”) in central Israel sustained a direct hit overnight during Iran’s missile barrage on the city.
“I was in a shelter two buildings away from my home. Then there was a boom. A boom out of nowhere,” Chen told Walla Culture.
“An unexpected boom, no siren. I didn’t even have time to get scared. In one second, it turned into an AI action movie. It was very hard. People were injured. They opened the door, and someone had to put a tourniquet on someone else. I helped a woman. There was panic in the shelter.
'Like an apocalyptic movie'
"It was a boom out of nowhere. It turned out there was a direct hit on my building, in central Israel. It was one of two buildings where a woman was killed. I couldn’t go back into my home. There were cars on fire. Suddenly, it became the most ‘scene of a scene’ I’ve ever seen in my life. After that, we evacuated from there like in an apocalyptic movie. On the way, we saw broken windows,” Chen said.
Chen posted a video from the scene to his Instagram Story.

“Good thing we were in the shelter,” Chen added in his conversation with Walla Culture. “If anyone thinks this is a conspiracy or something, it isn’t. It’s a big deal. I’m shocked nothing happened to us, because it was an unbelievable boom. A powerful boom. I went to sleep at Katorze’s. I need to organize a lot of things now. It’s the first day of the war. We killed their Khamenei, and then they fired at me. Senior guy versus senior guy. No games.”
The home of actress Alona Sa’ar and her fiancé, musician Yotam Jonathan Rabino, who performs under the stage name Voodoo Daddy, was also damaged overnight in the missile barrage from Iran on central Israel. Sa’ar, the daughter of Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar, posted a photo to her Instagram Story showing damage in the home, including shattered windows, and wrote, “Yotam asked someone from the Home Front Command if we’re supposed to clean the apartment ourselves.”
