The bodies of two Spanish cavers were transferred to a morgue Tuesday as a fellow climber who survived their plunge into a deep ravine in Morocco's High Atlas mountains flew home.

An AFP photographer said Spanish diplomats were present as the bodies of Gustavo Virues and Jose Antonio Martinez arrived at the morgue of Bugafer hospital in the southern city of Ouarzazate.

Prime Minister Tammam Salam on Tuesday held talks with visiting Spanish King Felipe VI, hailing the efforts of Spain's contingent within the UNIFIL force operating in southern Lebanon.

In their meeting at the Grand Serail, Salam underlined his keenness on strengthening all aspects of the relation with Spain, extending gratitude over Spain's participation in the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), state-run National News Agency reported.

Israeli security sources acknowledged on Tuesday that the death of a Spanish U.N. peacekeeper in January was caused by Israeli fire.

The EU is seeking information from Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal to determine if they have illegally supported their frail banks, officials said Tuesday.

The issue is potentially serious since if the four cash-strapped eurozone countries are found at fault they would have to repay the state aid and find other funds to prop up the banks.

Spain's conservative Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said on Monday he will seek re-election in this year's national polls, despite facing criticism after his party was trounced in a key regional vote last month.

Moroccan emergency services launched a rescue operation for three Spanish cavers Saturday found apparently alive by search teams in the High Atlas mountains, an official said.

The trio were found at the bottom of a cliff in the Tamest area, Morocco's MAP news agency reported, without immediately giving any word on their state of health.
