The army regularly is involved in logistics for natural disasters and other crises. A very small number were requested by local governments for supplementary support. They weren't armed and had no powers of directive. These efforts were already coordinating with multiple NGOs and Aboriginal Health organisations, including community elders. It has been a laudable and welcomed public health effort, self-servingly exploited and shamelessly lied about by some overseas pundits with only their own agendas in mind. Also just for the record, the effort involved a single facility or so-called "camp" (in reality, repurposed mining accommodation blocks).

LOL ridiculous...Easily proven that these people were not place by their free will.
Remember the 3 kids that escaped out of one of these lovely camps?
All 3 were Covid Negative and were trying to go back home.
THEY LOCKED DOWN THE ENTIRE TERRITORY AND DID A MASSIVE MANHUNT.
With dogs, helicopters, planes and traffic checkpoints in the area.
You know because that's totally normal when people are there voluntarily.
