Update 2025-06-19: According to the latest reports, Israeli forces launched strikes on Thursday (19 June) near Tehran and other parts of the country. Moreover, the Israeli forces also issued evacuation warnings for the residents of Arak and Khondab in Markazi Province before the IDF targeted military infrastructure belonging to the Iranian regime. Additionally, thousands of Australian citizens were set to evacuated but efforts were hampered as missile strikes and closed airspace made civilian flights too risky. A small group was evacuated from Israel via a land border, with further attempts planned within 24 hours. Meanwhile, New Zealand closed its embassy in Iran and evacuated staffs and their families to Azerbaijan, pledging urgent support for other citizens if safe exit options arise.
