Tel Aviv [Israel], October 26 (ANI/TPS): Israeli Opera singers Anat Czarny and Oded Reich are giving their voices to an appeal to bring more than 220 hostages home from Gaza.

Wednesday happened to be World Opera Day, but Czarny told the Tazpit Press Service, "We're not celebrating, we're mourning. And we are praying to get our children, mothers, fathers and the elderly back."

The attack has a personal dimension for Czarny, a mezzo-soprano, and Reich, a baritone. A relative and a friend of Reich were both taken hostage while Czarny has relatives who survived the massacre at Kibbutz Be'eri.

Czarny explained to TPS that the opera released a video of her and Reich singing "Bring Him Back" from "Les Miserables."
