Captured IDF soldier Cpl. Gilad Schlait is alive and in good condition, Hamas's Syria-based leader Khaled Mashaal was quoted as saying Thursday.
In an interview set to be published Friday in the Italian weekly Panorama, Mashaal said that Schlait's captors were treating him "according to law."
The Hamas leader went on to say that he was "astonished" as to why Israel so worried about one soldier when in Israel, about 12,000 Palestinians are detained, including women and children.
