Ten Hearts players in total have been called up to represent their countries next week following impressive form at club level.
Steven Naismith's team hold a 13-point lead in third place in the Scottish Premiership and reached the Scottish Cup semi-finals by beating Morton on Monday. They travel to Dingwall to face Ross County in the league this weekend before international fortnight begins.
That will see a number of first-team players depart Edinburgh to play for their respective nations. They are listed below:
