Shadow Assistant Defence Infrastructure Minister Leah Blyth talks about the escalating tensions in the Middle East.
Many countries are evacuating non-emergency embassy staff, including Australia, and many countries are urging citizens not to travel to the Middle East for the holidays.
“It is always concerning when situations escalate internationally,” Ms Blyth told Sky News Australia.
“It is problematic.
“What we want to see in that area is the de-escalation rather than the escalation.”
