Bollywood actress Nushrratt Bharuccha, who had traveled to Israel for the Haifa International Film Festival, found herself stranded amidst the escalating conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Multiple rockets were launched by Hamas, intensifying the crisis. Fortunately, Nushrratt's team confirmed that she has reached a secure area near the airport in Israel and will soon be boarding a flight back to India.
India TV reached out to Nushrratt's mother, Tasneem, who expressed relief, stating her daughter was safe and on her way home. Nushrratt's team, working closely with the Embassy, ensured her safety and arranged a connecting flight back to India. Details about her journey were kept confidential for security reasons.
During the turmoil, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged Gaza residents to flee, emphasizing a severe response to the conflict.
The crisis intensified when dozens of Hamas militants breached the blockaded Gaza Strip, entering Israeli towns, resulting in casualties and abductions.
The surprise attack occurred during a major Jewish holiday, heightening tensions in the region.
On the professional front, the 38-year-old actress was last seen in the thriller drama "Akelli," portraying an ordinary Indian girl trapped in a combat zone, struggling for her safety.
As the conflict continues, efforts to ensure the safety of individuals, including prominent personalities like Nushrratt Bharuccha, remain a priority amid the challenging situation.
