INTERVIEW: Australians urged to heed travel advice on Lebanon

  • Summary

  • Options for Australians to immediately leave Lebanon have been reduced with disruptions to flights out of Lebanon's only international airport in Beirut. In 2006, the airport was rendered unuseable after Israeli forces bombed it. Australians were forced to evacuate by sea, a process which took much longer. The Australian government is urging those in Lebanon to leave immediately on any available commercial flight, after the deadly attack in the Golan Heights over the weekend. Middle East scholar at the Australian National University Ian Parmeter was the former Australian ambassador to Lebanon. He told Biwa Kwan the latest update in travel advice on Lebanon should be heeded.
