With the chilly blast over for now, colonist boats leapt from a single unit to eight last week, delivering almost 500 predominantly military-aged males to our shores.
If President Trump - motivated by Israel and oil - attacks and destabilises Iran further, expect this year to be a new all time record. Iranians presented the overwhelming majority of boat migrants in 2018 and 2019 and remained the top nationality in 2020 and 2021, before being overtaken by Albanians and Afghans in 2022. The latest available figures for the nationality of boat migrants show that in 2024 over 4,000 Iranians made the crossing, behind only Afghanistan and Syria.
Total = 488 (up 456 from previous week)
