Freed hostages Daniella Gilboa and Karina Ariev performed the song “Maybe the Door Will Open” on Thursday evening in their first public appearance during the “Belev Yam” concert, held in memory of Staff Sgt. Yam Glas, who was killed on October 7.
Glas, who served as a commander of the IDF’s lookouts and fell in the Nahal Oz operations room, wrote the song together with Gilboa and Aviv Hajaj, who was also killed that day at the base. The song was first recorded as part of a Galatz and Galgalatz project marking one year since the war, performed by Eden Ben Zaken.

The “Belev Yam” concert, held at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, was initiated by Glas’s partner, Alon Nechmias. The performance was accompanied by an album of the same name, featuring songs written about loss, grief, and coping. Among the artists who participated were Alon Eder, Yermi Kaplan, Rona Kenan, and Nadav Hollander.

On stage, Glas’s mother, Anat, paid tribute to her daughter, saying: “I love you, Yimchi. You will always be my best friend. I carry you with me everywhere, in every corner, with every breath.”
Glas, who was 20 when she was killed, was known for her love of music and playing instruments. Her bond with Gilboa, Hajaj, and the other lookouts at the Nahal Oz base included shared musical sessions during their free time, when they would write and perform songs together.
