Australia must confront Iran’s shadow war on its shores

TEHRAN, IRAN - APRIL 22, 2026: Under a huge banner on the corner of Revolution Square with a message from IRGC that reads the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed, people holding Iranian flags and images of Mojtaba and Ali Khamenei the present and assassinated supreme leaders defy any negotiations with U.S. and call for the Strait of Hormuz to remain closed and avenge the blood of the martyred supreme leader on April 22, 2026 in Tehran, Iran.

The United States extended the 2 weeks ceasefire with Iran and awaits a new proposal from Iran.
