Latest CBS News Videos - Mother of hostage speaks out after Hamas released video of her son - For more than 200 days after Hersh Goldberg-Polin was taken hostage by Hamas on Oct.7, his mother hadn't heard his voice or seen video that proved he was alive. But that changed this week, when Hamas released a propaganda video showing Hersh - an Israeli-American - alive with his left arm amputated. CBS News' Debora Patta sat down with his mother, Rachel Goldberg-Polin, to ask about the "overwhelming and emotional" moment she saw that video and how she hopes all parties involved can reach a compromise to end the suffering. 9H ago - 06:24
