The Hostage Deal

Hila was Released, and is Waiting for her Mother, who is Still in the Captivity of Hamas

Hila was released from Hamas captivity three days ago, but contrary to the agreement with the terrorist organization, her mother, Raya Rotem, is still in captivity, and Mia Regev was also released without her brother, Itay Regev.

Three days after she was released from captivity by the terrorist organization Hamas without fear, even though this is a violation of the agreement. 13-year-old Hila Rotem is still waiting for her mother Raya Rotem, who was also not released in subsequent beats. Raya was kidnapped from her home on Simchat Torah, when Raya managed to hide, the terrorists set the house on fire, and Hila ran out and was also captured by the terrorists.

Besides Hila and Raya Rotem, who were separated, Mia Regev was also released without her 18-year-old brother Itai Regev, who is still in Hamas captivity. After the release, Hila was recorded together with Emily Hand, her 8-year-old friend who was kidnapped with her from Kibbutz Be'eri. Hila was recorded with her mother's brother and friend who remained in captivity.

Emily was recorded with her father Tom Hand, who first received reports of his daughter being murdered in the Simchat Torah Massacre but was later informed that his daughter had been taken hostage. Journalist Piers Morgan, who interviewed father Tom, tweeted: "The poor man's interviews since October 7th have broken my heart. But tonight, Thomas Hand will be reunited with the daughter he thought was kidnapped and killed by Hamas. The news that Emily reunites with her father is just wonderful. I am so happy for him."

Yesterday, two days after returning from Hamas captivity, Hila Rotem Shoshani and Emily Hand celebrated a birthday. The singer Eliad came to sing and make the two happy.
