'Der Spiegel': Olmert to declare Goldwasser and Regev dead
The Prime Minister's Office refused to comment Saturday on reports in the German weekly Der Spiegel that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert plans to designate IDF reservists Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev as "fallen soldiers." The two men were kidnapped by Hizbullah in June 2006, triggering the Second Lebanon War. Officials said that as long as there was no statement to the contrary, the working assumption was that both soldiers were missing in action and Israel would continue to pursue all means to bring about their return.
