Newly announced restriction changes will see residents able to fly freely to and from other countries without the need for an exemption.

The new regulations will only apply to fully vaccinated Australians from November 1, with the health minister approving the mandate last night.

Travellers will need to provide their vaccine passport upon departure and this announcement comes as 84% of the population has received two doses of COVID-19 jabs.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison says his country is also “getting very close now to announcing the reciprocal arrangement with Singapore”.

This follows Singapore announcing on Tuesday night that it will begin a new travel bubble arrangement with 10 European nations and Australia.

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
