The story · English

Omer Shem Tov, a former hostage held in Gaza, appeared on stage at the Sultan's Pool in Jerusalem on Thursday evening. He performed a solo segment of the song "Shmor al Ha'olam Yeled" (Protect the World, Child) alongside prominent Israeli artists Amir Dadon, Avitar Banai, Moshe Peretz, and Amir Benayoun.

The performance was part of a closing concert for a series of "Selichot" (penitential prayers) performances organized by singer David D'Or. Tens of thousands of people attended D'Or's annual Selichot concert series.

Shem Tov's appearance marked a significant moment, bringing together a popular musical event with the experience of a hostage survivor, resonating emotionally with the large crowd gathered at the historic Jerusalem venue.
