Soldiers will not be freed without swap: Hizbollah
Dubai, Sep 13: Hizbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said his group would release the two Israeli soldiers it kidnapped only if Israel freed Samir al-Qantar, the Lebanese prisoner held for the longest time by the Jewish state.
''You ask me, will there be a deal without Samir, I say no,'' Nasrallah told Al Jazeera television in an interview aired today.
''Absolutely not,'' he added.
