Around 300 Australian Defence Force (ADF) soldiers were deployed alongside police over the weekend in New South Wales to help police enforce strict new coronavirus lockdowns. Police helicopters have also been seen in the area, ordering residents to comply with lockdown restrictions.
Australian broadcaster ABC reported the soldiers arrived in the city of Sydney over the weekend and underwent training and would begin going door to door in Sydney by Monday to check that residents are complying with the lockdown orders.
The Daily Mail reported in Sydney’s western suburbs residents saw police helicopters hovering overhead while sounding sirens and broadcasting the message, “This is public health order —do not break rules —you will be found and fines issued.”
One video reposted by Australian journalist Avi Yemini shows a man exclaiming “what the f–k” before showing helicopters flying overhead and sounding warning messages to the public. The video was originally posted by TikTok user bankstown2200 over the weekend.
The arrival of ADF troops and other enforcement measures comes more than a month after the New South Wales (NSW) government ordered new coronavirus restrictions on June 23. On July 14, the NSW government extended the lockdown orders through July 30. The lockdowns in Sydney have again been extended until at least Aug. 28.
The lockdown rules include a mask mandate, evenfor some outdoor places. People may leave their homes to get groceries and medicine or to go to hospitals. Only one person per household is permitted to leave their home per day to get groceries. People are allowed to go to school or work only if they cannot work and study from home. People may go outdoors to exercise but are not allowed to travel more than 10k from their homes (about 6 miles).
People outside of greater Sydney also cannot enter

Unreal.
Sure it will. Aussies turned in all their guns.
Not to worry. We aren’t far behind.
Melbourne and Victoria went into lockdown yesterday as well.
The Aussies have not gotten around to welding apartment doors shut. Yet.
Kind of a brilliant move.
Everyone is looking at HK, and the Chinese invade Australia. Nobody’s got a gun.
It would be over very quickly.
However, if the US wasn’t already directly working with China, our subs could make logistics a real issue for them. So could our frigates and destroyers.
What is happening? NONE OF THIS is happening in the SE US. We are doing just fine. If they bring helicopters on us, it’s going to be civil war.
Yep, same stuff that happens in 2nd and 3rd world nations.
Tyranny.
Hi.
Tell those Aussies to come to Free Florida.
They can bring their Sheilas too.
Leave the marsupials.

Sydney has fallen
I have heard of many young men that are waiting for ‘The Spark’ to set things off.
Helicopters, armored vehicles and armed troops would be a bright spark indeed.
The article says the army will begin going door to door in Sydney starting on Monday.
Sydney has a population of more than 4 million people and is a sprawling city.
Good luck with checking everybody is at home.
After they go down your street, feel free to leave your home. They won’t be back down your street for a LOOOOONNNG TIME !
FOOLS !
This is what happens when the State takes away your guns.
Shoot to kill orders?
It’s unreal this is happening…
…in Australia of all places.
Australia began as a prison colony. It has now come full circle and has now imprisoned millions of innocents.
Australia has a population of about 26 million. They should all refuse this tyranny. Where would they be locked up? Would these serfs be killed by the jack-booted army to “save” them from a virus?
There is no point is saving lives that become not worth living.
Australia has become a government of lunatic tyrants controlling a mass of submissive lunatics.
Lockdowns will never work to eradicate a virus.
I bet you're right.
Remember: when the Government says you don't need guns is exactly the time you need guns!
