BEIRUT, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Saturday his guerrilla group possessed body parts of Israeli soldiers left on southern Lebanon's battlefields during the 2006 war between the arch-foes.

The two sides fought a July-August war after Hezbollah captured two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid.

"Oh Zionists your army is lying to you ... your army has left the body parts of your soldiers in our villages and fields," Nasrallah said, addressing a crowd of Shi'ite Muslim followers in southern Beirut during an Ashura rally.

"Our mujahideen used to fight these Zionists, killing them and collecting their body parts. I am not talking about regular bodyparts. I tell the Israelis, we have the heads of your soldiers, we have hands, we have legs."
