Fiji says no word on location of UN peacekeepers seized in Golan Heights
The head of the Fijian army said on Sunday negotiations for the release of 44 soldiers seized by an al Qaeda-linked group on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights were being pursued but he worried there had been no word on where his men are being held.
"We still at this stage cannot confirm the exact location of our troops. We are continuing negotiations at all levels," Fijian Army Commander Brigadier General Mosese Tikoitoga told a media conference in Fiji on Sunday.
He said they had been assured that the men were being treated well and had come to no harm.
