Live: Conflict in the Middle East continues amid calls for de-escalation

The conflict in the Middle East continues amid calls for de-escalation. An Israeli airstrike has killed senior Hezbollah commander Abu Ali Rida in southern Lebanon, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed on Monday. Thirteen airstrikes have been conducted near the border, resulting in casualties and damage to civilian infrastructure. The IDF also reports Hezbollah retaliated by firing around 60 projectiles into northern Israel. No injuries were reported. Since September, the Israeli army has intensified its airstrikes against Hezbollah across Lebanon, resulting in significant civilian casualties and displacing residents from many areas. #CGTNOnsite
