Earlier this week, the Australian Government announced it will be sending aircraft, weapons and troops to the Middle East amid the ongoing conflict between the U.S., Israel, and Iran. It led us to one question: Does that mean that Australia has now entered this war? We’re going to explore the answer to that question in today’s podcast.
