'Only prison swop will do'

Dubai - Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan
Nasrallah said on Thursday two Israeli soldiers seized last week
would not be released without a prisoner swop through indirect
negotiations.
"If the entire universe came (to pressure Hezbollah) it would
not bring back the Israeli soldiers unless through indirect
negotiations and a prisoner swop," he said in excerpts of an
interview with Al-Jazeera television.
Nasrallah, who appeared in the interview, also said that the
group's leadership structure still was intact.
"I can confirm without exaggeration ... that the leadership
structure of Hezbollah has not been hurt."
"All this Israeli talk that they hit 50% of our
rocket capabilities and warehouses, this talk is all wrong and
nonsense."
Nasrallah's whereabouts are unknown and the al-Jazeera
correspondent who conducted the interview said it took place
amid heavy security procedures and he did not know where he was.
