Hezbollah fighter confesses to kidnapping IDF soldiers
By Reuters
A Hezbollah fighter captured by Israel has told interrogators he received
training in Iran and arrived there on a flight from Syria, a tape of the
interrogation released by the Israeli army showed on Monday.
During questioning the man also confessed to taking part in the
cross-border raid on July 12 in which two Israel Defense Forces soldiers were
captured, the incident which sparked the current conflict.
"We trained in Iran," the man, who gave his name as Mahmoud Ali Suleiman,
told the interrogator. "We went from Beirut in civilian cars... to the airport
in Damascus."
Suleiman, who gave his age as 22, said between 40 and 50 people went with
him for the training, which involved instruction in the use of anti-tank
weapons. He didn't say when the training took place or how long it lasted.
The man, speaking in Arabic, said he joined Hezbollah in 2000 and had
carried out two operations with the Lebanese guerrilla group, the first in
December 2005 when they had tried to take on an Israeli tank entering southern
Lebanon.
The second operation was the one in July, when the two Israeli soldiers
were seized and eight were killed in subsequent mortar fire and clashes.
In addition to the brief stint in Iran, Suleiman said he had done
extensive training at a Hezbollah camp in Baalbek, in Lebanon's eastern Bekaa
valley.
