Saudi summit: Leaders meet to discuss Middle East conflicts

Arab and Muslim leaders have met in Saudi Arabia to discuss the wars in Gaza and Lebanon.

The summit in Riyadh will focus on what has been described as Israel’s ongoing aggression in the region.

The new Israeli Defence Minister said his country is close to defeating Hezbollah, and described the killing of the group’s leader in September as a “crowning achievement”.
