Israel and Hizbollah on Wednesday completed their long-awaited prisoner swap, with the Lebanese Shia group handing over the remains of the two Israeli soldiers whose capture triggered the 2006 Lebanon war.

In return, Israel released five Lebanese prisoners and handed over the remains of 200 Lebanese and Palestinian fighters killed in clashes with Israeli forces. Among the men freed was one of Israel’s highest-profile prisoners: Samir Kuntar, a Lebanese militant who spent almost 30 years in jail for an attack that killed five Israelis, including a father and two of his daughters.
