The two Bulgarian men who were seized hostages near Mosul are probably in Falluja at the moment.

That became known after a statement of Bulgarian Deputy Foreign Minister Gergana Grancharova.

The captors of the Bulgarians, two civilian truck drivers identified as Ivaylo Kepov and Georgi Lazov, threatened to kill them unless the US frees all Iraqi detainees. The deadline expired shortly before midnight on Friday, but there wasn't any news about the condition of the hostages.
