Acclaimed Israeli producer Dana Eden found dead

Dana Eden, the acclaimed Israeli producer and co-creator of the Emmy-winning drama Tehran, has died suddenly in Greece at the age of 52.
She was found dead in a hotel in Athens, where she had been for the filming of the hit series' fourth season.
Initial indications from Greek police suggest she took her own life, with no suspicion of foul play.
Her production company, Donna and Shula productions, issued a statement to dispel false rumours of a criminal or nationally motivated death.
Tributes were paid by Israeli public broadcaster KAN and Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar, who praised her significant contributions to Israeli television.
