Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said on Monday that Tehran had sought only its "legitimate rights" in a peace proposal that has been rejected by the United States. Meanwhile, at least seven people were killed and seven others wounded in Israeli strikes across southern Lebanon on Monday, Lebanon's National News Agency reported. Israel said it launched an interceptor at a surface-to-air missile fired toward an Israeli Air Force aircraft operating over southern Lebanon, triggering alerts in Israel's Mediterranean coast. The humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate in Lebanon despite the ceasefire, with attacks on health-related sites and the killing of paramedics, UN humanitarians said on Monday.
