Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert says his Cabinet will vote Sunday on a proposal to exchange prisoners with Hezbollah guerrillas in Lebanon.

Hezbollah is holding two Israeli soldiers it captured two years ago, setting off a 34-day war. The exchange is said to include freedom for Samir Kantar, a Lebanese serving multiple life terms for a 1979 attack in which four Israelis were killed.

Olmert told his parliament Wednesday; “I have decided to bring the issue (of the exchange) before the Cabinet at its next meeting on Sunday.”

This week the chief military rabbi started examining evidence to determine whether they two soldiers can be officially declared dead. They were known to be badly wounded when they were captured.
