Operation Resolute is the involvement of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) in Australian government efforts to prevent unauthorised entries to sovereign Australian territory. This has mainly taken the forms of: remote surveillance; air, sea and land patrols by ADF personnel; seizure of "suspected irregular entry vessels", and; locating/assisting people who have entered Australia via such a vessel (prior to the apprehension of such people by relevant civilian authorities). Operation Resolute began on 17 July 2006 and consolidated a number of previous ADF operations, including Operation Relex.
