00:00Well, I'm very concerned and that's why I issued a joint statement, again the third
00:05one that I've done with the Prime Minister of Canada and the Prime Minister of New Zealand
00:11just last Friday.
00:13We warned about the escalation, the potential that was there.
00:19Do not travel to Lebanon at the moment.
00:23We have a very clear statement that has been issued through the Department of Foreign Affairs
00:29and Trade and for those Australians who are overseas they should take the opportunity
00:36to come home.
00:37Australian citizens don't need visas, they get to come home.
00:41There's thousands of them in Lebanon right now.
