🔺Welcome to “Fauda: Explosive Lab,” an escape room on Tel Aviv’s Allenby Street, 45 miles and seemingly a world away from the actual tunnels Israeli forces "discover" in Gaza.

Arik Turkenich, a businessman, built this live-action role-playing experience back in 2016, shortly after the debut of Fauda, the Netflix show, which includes "an escape from Gaza" themed room.

It started as a booming business, popular for corporate team-building, bachelor parties and tourists alike, until Oct 7th. Then Israelis were too traumatised so the business flatlined.

But a trickle of customers began to filter back in January, and Turkenich said most are choosing the Gaza scenario rather than his other rooms.

Among the new customers are evacuees from the borders with Lebanon and units of IDF who arrive with their commanders, in military uniform.

It’s funny,” said Turkenich, “...I thought who the hell would want to play ‘Fauda’ now? But Israelis, you know, they’re unpredictable.” [Unpredictably psychotic]
