The Israeli military has begun digging up the bodies of some 190 Hezbollah fighters who were killed in battles with Israel.
The exhumation is part of a larger prisoner swap deal between Israel and the Hezbollah. Under that deal, Israel is to release five fighters captured in the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war next week. Hezbollah in turn is to hand over two Israeli reserve soldiers whose kidnapping sparked the month-long war. The two Israeli soldiers are believed to be dead. The prisoner swap deal was mediated by the UN-appointed envoy, Gerhard Conrad from Germany.
