A 31-year-old Canadian-Israeli woman who was feared captured by ISIS terrorists has posted a note on her Facebook profile to tell her fans that she is alive and well.

Gill Rosenberg said she joined the Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, earlier this month to fight ISIS. Over the weekend, an online forum known to be sympathetic to Islamists claimed that a female fighter had been captured during a raid in Kobani.

I’m totally safe and secure. I don’t have Internet access or any communication devices with me for my safety and security

They began to speculate that Ms. Rosenberg, who originally hails from White Rock, B.C. was captured.

However, experts in the region were skeptical, noting that Ms. Rosenberg wasn’t near Kobani, and that the Islamists had not posted any photographic evidence of her apparent capture.

On Monday, Ms. Rosenberg posted to her Facebook site:

“Guys, I’m totally safe and secure. I don’t have Internet access or any communication devices with me for my safety and security. I can’t reply regularly and only happened to have a chance to log in and see these buklshit (sic) news stories. Ignore the reports I’ve been captured. Yalla, Acharai!”
