The ongoing conflict in Lebanon and the Occupied Palestinian Territories could lead to increased tensions in other locations in the Middle East. There is an increased threat of attacks against Israeli interests across the region. Demonstrations and protest activity may also occur, and localised security situations could deteriorate with little notice. Avoid all demonstrations and protests. The ongoing conflict may also result in airspace closures, flight cancellations, flight diversions and other travel disruptions across the region.
We continue to advise do not travel to Iran. Terrorist attacks could happen anywhere in Iran, including Tehran or other locations frequented by foreigners and tourists. They could occur anytime without warning. Protests and demonstrations continue to be expected. Avoid all protest activity and monitor media for possible threats. Australians, including dual nationals, should strongly consider leaving Iran as soon as possible. Foreigners, including Australians, are at a high risk of arbitrary detention or arrest. Foreign and dual nationals, including Australians, have been detained without due process of law. Kidnapping for ransom is a risk in Iran.
We continue to advise:
Do not travel to Iran as there’s a high risk you could be arbitrarily detained or arrested.
