TEHRAN -- Hezbollah has received an Israeli report that includes information about the fate of four Iranian diplomats kidnapped 26 years ago.

German mediator Gerhard Conrad, who was appointed by the UN to facilitate a prisoner swap between Hezbollah and Israel, handed over a final report on the fate of four missing Iranian diplomats to the Lebanese movement, informed sources told Beirut’s As-Safir daily on Monday.
Hezbollah received the report as part of an information exchange between the two sides before the prisoner swap, which is scheduled to take place next Wednesday at the Ras Al-Naqoura border point.
According to the sources, the report contains details of an Israeli investigation in Lebanon that involved questioning former Phalangist leaders about the abduction and transfer of the four diplomats to Beirut.
Iranian diplomats Ahmad Motevasselian, Seyyed Mohsen Mousavi, Taqi Rastegar Moqaddam and Kazem Akhavan were abducted by armed Phalangists in northern Lebanon in 1982 and handed over to the Israeli army that was occupying the country at the time.
The Phalange is one of the groups that make up the Lebanese Forces Party, which is currently led by Samir Geagea -- a politician of the ruling March 14 alliance.
In April 1975, Phalangist militiamen carried out the Bus Massacre, which is widely recognized as the first spark that led to the Lebanese Civil War.
