澳大利亚新南威尔士州警方于周日正式投入运作耗资9430万澳元的“武装响应指挥部”（ARC），旨在应对2025年12月14日邦迪海滩恐怖袭击后出现的安全挑战1。该单位由250名经过六个月专业训练的警官组成，主要部署在悉尼热点地区，并配备了澳大利亚战斗突击步枪1。新南威尔士州州长Chris Minns表示：“我们面临的安全挑战已经改变，我们的警务模式也必须随之改变。”1当局称此举将提高对严重威胁的快速反应能力并震慑犯罪1。
然而，这一举措引发了人权组织及政治反对派的强烈担忧，他们警告该部队可能被用于压制和平抗议，从而加剧警民之间的紧张关系1。国际特赦组织澳大利亚分部呼吁建立严格保障以保护和平抗议权利，担心部队被用于“恐吓或压制和平抗议”1。新南威尔士州绿党议员Sue Higginson称ARC是“恐吓单位”，是“国家暴力的升级”1。此外，NSW犯罪统计与研究局数据显示，自2019年以来公众对新南威尔士州警方的信任度显著下降：2019年至2025年间，公众对警方将罪犯绳之以法的信心从82%降至73%，认为警方迅速处理案件的比例从66%降至49%1。
The New South Wales Police have officially launched the Armed Response Command (ARC), a specialized unit equipped with Australian Combat Assault Rifles, in response to security challenges following the Bondi Beach terror attack on December 14, 2025 1. The initiative, which commenced operations on Sunday, carries a budget of $94.3 million and consists of 250 officers who underwent six months of professional training to address serious threats and deter crime in Sydney hotspots 1. NSW Premier Chris Minns stated, "We face changed security challenges, and our policing model must change with them," emphasizing that the evolving nature of these threats necessitates an adaptation in policing strategies to improve rapid response capabilities 1.
However, the introduction of this militarized force has drawn sharp criticism from human rights organizations and political opponents who fear it could be used to suppress civil liberties. Amnesty International Australia called for strict safeguards to protect the right to peaceful protest, expressing concern that the unit might be utilized for "intimidating or suppressing peaceful protests" 1. NSW Greens MP Sue Higginson described the ARC as an "intimidation unit," characterizing its establishment as an escalation of state violence 1. These criticisms arise against a backdrop of declining public trust in law enforcement; data from the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research shows that confidence in police ability to bring criminals to justice dropped from 82% to 73%, while the perception that police handle cases quickly fell from 66% to 49% between 2019 and 2025 1.
