About this episode
When the United States and Israel began bombing Iran over the weekend, they set in motion a war that has engulfed the region. In Australia, the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has firmly backed the strikes by Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu despite saying his government does not know if there is any legal basis for them. Professor Ben Saul speaks to Nour Haydar about why law experts say it’s crystal clear the attacks on Iran were illegal and unprovoked, and why the military action sets a dangerous precedent
