Netflix’s “Jew Matchmaking” star sails in bombs shelters in Israel

Star of the successful show Netflix “Jewish Matchmaking”, Cindy Seni is no longer single, but still speaks with the famous counterman Aleeza Ben Shalom and lives in Israel.

To sit in the Israel Defense forces (FDI) during life to life in Jerusalem until October 7 and now the launch of the Rising Lion operation, Seni has seen a multitude of first -hand historical events.

“It was a whirlwind,” Seni told Fox News Digital. “It looks like it is an endless injury that we continue to try to spread, then it is reopened again and it is very, very difficult.”

Since the start of the operation in Iran, Israel has ordered civilians to stay in bombs shelters or protected spaces for longer periods. Seni says it can be “inducing anxiety” because you never know how long the order of the refuge will last.

“It is sometimes a question of an entire night or a few hours,” she said. “And thank God, I have a safe room in my apartment, but many people do not do it, so they have to run and go literally in the street at night in the middle with their children and it’s very stressful.”

Although she said that life in Israel at the moment is anxious and frightening, Seni also spoke of the resilience of the Israeli people, something that she admires of culture. Seni told Fox News Digital that the people of Israel lived their lives not because they were not afraid or did not stress, but rather despite this because they have no choice. As Seni said, “they can’t stop.”

An Israeli resilient who had a major impact on the life of seni in the middle of chaos of war and conflict is her husband, Eldad Cohen.

“He is a very, very resilient Israeli. He has gone through a lot,” she said. “He was also injured in the army, and he has his own genre, you grew up here during the second intifada in Jerusalem, and therefore he has this own resilience that really melts.”

“So, ‘Israel with Cindy’ was really created as a way to spread joy within the community – the Jewish community – and that has really grown from there,” said Seni. “When situations like these occur, and the same thing with October 7, I was faced with a large amount of hatred or just anti-Semitism. And I decided that my platform was going to be used in the period of showing anti-Semitism and exposing hatred and trying to really find peace and a long-term solution.
