Preparedness

The Australian Civil-Military Centre (ACMC) is following whole-of-government guidance from the Australian Department of Health and the Prime Minister’s Office in relation to COVID-19, and is monitoring the situation with a priority on the health and wellbeing of its staff and of the general community.

Exercise Talisman Sabre 2025 offered ACMC the opportunity to host delegates from the ICRC to visit the ADF’s exercise detention facility to observe a range of scenarios, including the detention of prisoners of war. Under the Law of Armed Conflict, ICRC has the right to undertake humanitarian visits to prisoners of war and civilian internees during armed conflict.
