Operation Al-Redwan...Another Truthful Pledge Fulfilled
Source: Al-Manar TV, 16-7-2008
The Islamic Resistance and "Israel" carry out a prisoner exchange on Wednesday dubbed Operation Al-Redwan. The operation is the last of Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's true pledges.
Hizbullah has prepared a hero's welcome for its four fighters and senior detainee Samir Kintar at the Naqura crossing, Beirut's international airport and Beirut's southern suburb.
Hizbullah official Wafik Safa unveiled the fate of the two "Israeli" soldiers Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev and handed the ICRC their bodies in two coffins.
Celebratory banners and flags are flying along the main coastal highway from the border with occupied Palestine in Naqura to Lebanon's southern port city of Sidon and the cabinet has declared Wednesday a national holiday.
The exchange is to start at the Naqura crossing at around 0600 GMT, with DNA tests being carried out to confirm the identities of the two soldiers before the Lebanese fighters are handed over.
In return for its two dead soldiers, "Israel" is to transfer to Lebanon the remains of 199 Lebanese, Palestinian and Arab martyrs exhumed over the past week.
The UN-brokered swap, which was given final approval by the "Israeli" cabinet on Tuesday, is the eighth between "Israel" and Hizbullah since 1991.
"Israel's" Jerusalem Post newspaper has billed the festivities in Lebanon, where the released men are to be flown to Beirut to be greeted by President Michel Slueiman and Prime Minister Fouad Saniora, as "a celebration of evil."
Sayyed Nasrallah is to give a speech in Beirut's southern suburbs to hail the success of operation Al-Redwan (named after martyr Imad Moghnieh or Hajj Redwan) in closing the prisoners file with the Zionist entity.
