12-year-old Hila Rotem, who was released last night from Hamas captivity without her mother, responded to the terrorist organization's claims that the two were separated since the mother's location is unknown.

"Mom was with me the entire period of captivity. Hamas separated us from each other two days before my release. My mother's condition was good. We were together with Emily. Hamas notified us that there was a ceasefire and that they were releasing us."
