The financial sanctions and travel bans against five Iranian individuals accused of contributing to Iran’s missile program come on the back of similar punitive measures by the United States and the United Kingdom aimed at the Iranian energy sector.

Iran’s October 1 missile barrage against Israel “was a dangerous escalation that increased the risk of a wider regional war,” the office of Foreign Minister Penny Wong said in a statement.

Iran has said the attack was in response to Israeli strikes that killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, and others.

As tensions rise in the Middle East, Australia has increased its travel warning to the highest level for parts of the region.

“The Australian Government has serious concerns the security situation in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories could deteriorate rapidly. Today, we have upgraded Australia’s travel advice to Do Not Travel. This means you should leave now if it is safe to do so,” Wong said.
