Answer:
Yes, he said the word "divorced" (mutalliqah) rather than "you are divorced" (talaq), and he said "Hind is divorced." As for saying "divorced," this could be interpreted as a statement of fact, but "talaq" (you are divorced) is not; this is what could be interpreted as a statement of fact, while that is what could be interpreted as a declaration of divorce.
