The US President will travel to the Middle East this week; more than 200 evacuated Australians are due to touch down in Sydney this evening after leaving Israel for Dubai on Monday. Follow updates here.
More Australians evacuated from Tel Aviv are due to arrive back home, as the federal government looks to secure safe passage for those still stranded due to the Middle East conflict. On Monday night, government flights took 194 people from Israel to nearby Dubai, which included 75 Australians. An onward flight from Dubai to Sydney containing more than 200 evacuated Australians is due to touch down on Tuesday evening.
At least 45 Australians remain trapped in Gaza with limited access to water, electricity, fuel and food after Israel imposed a total blockade on the conflict-stricken territory. Foreign Minister Penny Wong said the humanitarian situation in the region was “dire”, with efforts underway for those stranded to be able to cross the border out of Gaza.
