Danube river's low water levels reveal remains of WWII German soldiers in Hungary
- The bodies of two World War Two German soldiers have been found in Budapest's Danube river, due to record-low water levels after an intense drought.
- Found alongside their remains were the identification tags of the two soldiers, a largely intact German army Wehrmacht motorcycle, a wedding ring and a Kuban shield - a combat badge of the Wehrmacht, the German War Graves Commission said.
- The remarkable finds have sparked hope that some families could finally discover the fates of their ancestors, more than 80 years on from the war.
