Special Deterrence Forces

State of Libya Al Radaa for Countering Terrorism & Organized Crime, commonly known as RADA Special Deterrence Forces, or simply RADA, is a Madkhali radical Islamist special operations military police unit formed in Tripoli, Libya, for the purpose of tackling crime. Its focus is high-profile kidnappings, murders, drug and alcohol poisoning related deaths, illegal migrant smuggling, weapons smuggling, explosives smuggling, terrorist attacks and plots. A lack of political power and police presence in Tripoli provoked the founding of this special unit.
