The remains of two Belgian mountaineers who disappeared in the Swiss Alps in 1992 have been identified after melting ice exposed their remains near the Trift Glacier. DNA testing confirmed their identities, ending a 34-year mystery. Swiss authorities said the discovery is linked to the retreat of glaciers, which is increasingly exposing the remains of people who disappeared in the Alps decades ago.

Officials say the bodies of two Belgian mountaineers missing for over three decades in the Swiss Alps have been found.
