Overseas Australians have filed legal action with the United Nations against the Morrison government.
The group of Australians declared the government “arbitrarily breached their right to return to the land of their birth or citizenship.”
The group has reiterated they were willing to comply with the public health measures required of them, including a 14-day quarantine period.
36,000 Australians remain overseas with almost 5,000 described as vulnerable.
