Military strikes and reprisal attacks have occurred across parts of the Middle East in recent days. The situation in the region remains unpredictable.

There remains a risk of further attacks and escalation. If strikes occur in your location follow local warning systems and, if warned of an imminent attack, move to an enclosed hardened shelter. Prioritise your safety, monitor events and follow local advice.

We continue to advise Australians do not travel to Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria and Yemen. We continue to advise reconsider your need to travel to Israel, Jordan, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

هل تعلم - يعد1 سبتمبر اليوم الوطني للزهرة الذهبية، وأول أيام الربيع في أستراليا.

تعد الزهرة الذهبية، الشعار الوطني لأستراليا، رمزٌ للوحدة والتنوع والصمود. فهذه الشجرة من أوائل النباتات التي تتجدد بعد الحرائق، مما يجعلها رمزًا قويًا للتجدد والقدرة على الازدهار في الطبيعة الأسترالية الفريدة.

يا لها من طريقة رائعة لاستقبال الربيع والاحتفال بما يعنيه أن تكون أستراليًا! 🇦🇺

🇦🇺 Deputy Head of Mission, Kim Ralston, was joined by Second Secretary Kiana Ralph for a visit to the Al Qassim Date Festival, also known as the Buraidah Dates Carnival — the largest date marketplace and festival in the world, showcasing more than 100 varieties of dates from across Al Qassim, a region home to around 11 million palm trees.

A wonderful way to learn more about the Kingdom’s rich date-growing traditions — and a truly sweet weekend in every sense. 🌴🇸🇦

On World Humanitarian Day, we honour humanitarian workers around the world who risk everything to help people in crisis.

Last year, 350 aid workers were killed while delivering life-saving assistance to those who need it most. Australia is working to better protect humanitarian personnel, uphold international law and strengthen accountability — including through our longstanding support for Yemen’s internationally recognised government, the Presidential Leadership Council. We remain committed to working towards de-escalation, peace and stability in Yemen.
