The growing threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical issue for both civilians and the military. With each successive conflict, pathogens become more resistant, making management infections in casualties increasingly challenging. To better understand scope characteristics conflict-related AMR, comprehensive literature search was conducted PubMed database April 2025, using defined terms related to war resistance. We screened included 117 relevant publications, comprising original research articles, reviews, case series, reports, editorials, commentaries, published English or French, with no date restriction. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence on multidrug-resistant bacteria most commonly isolated from casualties, their associated mechanisms, microbiological diagnostic tools available at various levels military continuum care (Roles 1–4). It also presents strategies preventing cross-contamination infection resource-limited combat settings provides practical, field-adapted recommendations clinicians, first responders specialized providers, aiming improve armed conflict zones mitigate spread AMR.
