Fauda is a series created by Lior Raz and Avi Issacharoff. With Lior Raz, Hisham Suliman and Shadi Mar’i. You can watch the fourth season starting January 20 on Netflix.

Fauda in its fourth season in a mix of action, political thriller and the (evident) touch of social conflict.

This season is just as good as the past ones: more of the same, more than one expects have made Fauda a phenomenon worth watching.
