To ensure immediate intervention, the new unit is equipped with all means of transport and rapid intervention, including motorcycles and modern vehicles connected to precise location-determining devices. These advanced technical equipments allow for achieving record response times and reaching the intervention site immediately, according to the national standard time limits.
In addition to speed and effectiveness, the elements of this patrol, which operate in uniform 24 hours a day, seven days a week on a rotational basis, are equipped with advanced communication tools and portable cameras. These advanced technical equipment enable the documentation of all security interventions in the field, ensuring the highest levels of transparency and professionalism in dealing with emergency calls from citizens.
This launch reflects the continuous commitment of the General Directorate of National Security to its comprehensive plan to develop police services and modernize field units. This plan seeks to provide modern and fast vehicles that improve the working conditions of police officers, while simultaneously enhancing the quality of response to citizen calls and reinforcing the sense of security.
