Mid Caption: Twenty-five Australian Defence Force (ADF) members working under Operation Mazurka are assisting the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) in the Sinai, Egypt.

The MFO is maintained by 11 nations including Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, Fiji and France. Australia's involvement in the MFO began in early 1982 with the formation of an Australia-New Zealand combined helicopter squadron. ADF members assist in the peace process by monitoring the border, preparing daily operational briefings and supporting the Headquarters.
