Israel-Hizbollah negotiation about prisoners

Hizbollah leader Shiek Nassrallah said that negotiations have been held to discussthe exchange of Lebanese prisoners held by Israel for remains of 12 Israeli commandos killed in an unsucessful Israeli raid.

Shiek Nasrallah added that the negotiations started a few days ago, and the channel which is mediating at the moment is the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

Israel holds an estimated 50 Lebanese prisoners inside its own borders and another 130 indirectly at Khiam Prison inside the strip of south Lebanon it occupies with the aid of its client Lebanese militia, the South Lebanon Army.
