PM Albanese’s problematic Iran response + Israel strike Hezbollah in Beirut
About this episode
Top international law experts are warning that the latest strikes by the US and Israel on Iran set a very dangerous precedent, especially for countries like Australia.
In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by international law expert Dr Tamer Morris, who explains why these latest attacks contravene international law and how it now opens the floodgates to further attacks from other nations.
Headlines: US President Donald Trump has warned there will be more casualties in Operation Epic Fury, The Israeli Military say senior members of Hezbollah have been struck in Beirut, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer says the UK will allow the US to use it's military bases, a top-secret report that investigated what went wrong with the Liberal party during last year’s federal election defeat has been leaked, and Delta Goodrem will represent Australia at Eurovision.
