The conflict in the Middle East is thousands of kilometers from the tables of Saina Salemi and his colleague Oscar, but the couple discusses continuous explosions and evacuation warnings.

While Ms. Salemi has not been talking to her family in Iran for more than three days due to a country -wide internet blackout, Oscar, who wants her surname not to be used, has no idea when she will see her trapped parents in Israel.

“If someone like an Oscar wasn’t here, my helplessness would have worse.

Israel and Iran have been striking since the Israeli army began to attack Iran’s nuclear program a week ago, but geopolitical tensions are dividing her two friends from Melbourne.

The couple are consumed with concern for their families and is horrified by the scale of human pain in the countries they remember with love from holidays.

“I said to Ocar, I feel crazy, because everyone around me is moving very normally and going to their daily lives and I am always watching a live blog 24/7, Sale Salemi said.

“We are really tired of the people used as a collateral damage.”

Donald Trump has warned about release about 10 million people in Iran’s capital, after his family in Tehran has no bomb shelter and is worried about what might happen to the old grandmother and grandfather.

The President said that the United States would decide whether it has participated in the conflict within two weeks and demand Iran’s unconditional surrender.

However, if the US joined the conflict, the US warned the “all war”.

Salemi said, “I told my cousin that I love him last night, and the last time there’s a big numbness that makes someone feel that you’ll feel what you call ‘I love you’.”

“I haven’t heard from this short message yet.”

More than 2000 Australian Australian Iran has been registered to leave Iran and more than 1200 people registered to leave Israel and were deployed to help Australian military personnel and aircraft.

Oscar’s parents have barely separated from the bomb shelter since the conflict exacerbated and did not know how to come home, and they may not be safe in the passage of Jordan’s land border after receiving a warning.

Orum I really feel for my family, I feel in Tel Aviv for everyone in Tehran, Gaza, ”Oscar said.

“None deserve it, tiring.”

He is grateful for grew up in Australia, where he and Mrs Salemi can lean on each other for support.

Orum I think there is really a special thing about this country where you can have such a friendship, ”he said.

“I hope that most of the Australians have to understand what it is like to have a family in such conditions.”

According to a Washington -based Iranian human rights group, Israeli strikes in Iran killed at least 639 people and injured more than 1300 people.

Israel said Iran’s retaliation strikes killed at least 24 people and injured hundreds of people.
