UN Secretary General Kofi Annan says Israel and Hezbollah have accepted his offer to mediate in the dispute over two captured Israeli soldiers. Hezbollah seized the soldiers during a cross-border raid in July, triggering the recent conflict with Israel. The group has called for an exchange of prisoners with Israel. Israel has repeated its view that the soldiers must be freed unconditionally and has said the UN will assist, rather than mediate, towards this end. <\/p>\n

An Israeli spokesman Mark Regev told the BBC that Israel viewed the continued detention of the two soldiers as a violation of the ceasefire that ended the fighting, and expected the UN to facilitate their unconditional release. Israel’s public position is that it will not negotiate with Hezbollah, which it regards as a terrorist group.

\nA special mediator will be appointed but Mr Annan intends to keep his or her name, and the negotiations, secret. He said he would not name the mediator because he wanted him or her to work "discreetly". Other potential mediators to secure the release of the Israeli soldiers have included US civil-rights campaigner Jesse Jackson, and the head of German intelligence. <\/p>\n

Two years ago, German-led negotiations brokered a prisoner exchange between Israel and Hezbollah. Mr Annan has left open the possibility that the negotiations might also include a third Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. Cpl Shalit was captured by Palestinian militants in June. Egyptian diplomats have been working for his release, but without success.
