Show Notes

Australia is deploying missiles, aircraft and 85 ADF personnel to the United Arab Emirates to provide air defence support amid escalating Middle East tensions. The deployment includes a Wedgetail long-range reconnaissance aircraft to help intercept Iranian drones and missiles, with approximately 115,000 Australians currently located in the UAE. International security experts note this could potentially increase homegrown terrorism risks, though the government emphasises the mission is focused on supporting Australian nationals and allied defence rather than direct conflict involvement.
