Armed response command deploys across Sydney | 7NEWS
Counter-terror police armed with military-style rifles have deployed across Sydney streets as the Armed Response Command launches operations ahead of the Bondi terror attack’s one-year anniversary. The specialist force comprises 100 officers equipped with high-tech vehicles and weapons, trained in rifle operations, advanced defensive driving and tactical medical response, with plans to expand to 250 officers by 2028. The unit operates 24/7 from a new operations centre in Surry Hills, backed by intelligence experts, and represents Australia’s first dedicated armed response command designed to prevent and respond to active armed defender incidents within seconds.
