While over 150,000 Australians have crossed the region in six weeks, the previous high alert disrupted travel insurance. Former US officials warn this is more of a diplomatic bridge than a peace treaty, with Trump hinting at possible military action if Iran backs down. Australia supports diplomacy for lasting peace, but travelers must still check Smartraveller and verify insurance coverage before booking.
