Etti Schwartz, aunt of freed hostage Daniella Gilboa, shared the immense excitement over Daniella's release from Hamas captivity yesterday after 477 days. ''I cannot share much, but I was told she ate a pita or two a day, until their stomachs swelled. Sometimes they would cook, but wouldn't eat. She was in a tunnel, in the dark, but they were together; that's the luck,'' she shared with Kan .
