Two men are in handcuffs after a major police operation involving police in camouflage on a busy Melbourne street.

The operation brought Carlisle St in Balaclava, Southeast Melbourne, to a standstill on at about 4pm on Wednesday as unmarked police SUVs blocked both lanes.

Footage of the scene shows a police officer wearing a camouflage bullet-proof vest and a balaclava while wielding an AR-15.

The footage also shows a group of people huddling around a particular area of the sidewalk that had been blocked off to the public.

Two men were also seen 'handcuffed' and lying on the floor as plain-clothed officers stood over them.

More to come.
