More repatriation flights for Australians stranded in Israel have been secured as people are being warned the security situation could prevent future efforts.
Australians seeking to flee Israel have been warned there may only be limited chances to leave as the government secures more flights out. The government has now confirmed two additional flights from Tel Aviv to Dubai on Monday. Extra flights from Dubai and London for people who have already been evacuated are also being put in place. But the flights remained "subject to factors including the security environment," Foreign Minister Penny Wong stressed.
"It is a war between a nation-state and a terrorist organisation, a terrorist organisation that has just in the most inhuman way murdered innocent men, women and children." Defence Minister Richard Marles backed the call for people to leave when they can, warning "it could all change at a moment's notice". This includes if Israel closes its airspace as it prepares for ground invasion.
