About the episode
Australian military facilities at an air base in the United Arab Emirates were damaged in an Iranian attack, though more than 100 stationed personnel escaped injury. Retired Major General Mick Ryan discusses Australia's current involvement in the Middle East conflict, including deployed E-7 Wedgetail aircraft for regional defence and potential future requests from the US administration. The conflict has already impacted Australians through higher fuel prices, with discussions about possible escalation and additional military commitments, particularly regarding the Strait of Hormuz.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
