The Research and Intervention Brigade (BRI) is a shock group inspired by the French BIS. The BIS was created in 2005 to replace the Police Special Intervention Unit (UISP) which was disbanded earlier.
The BRI officially replaced the then elite UISP in 2005. However, the BIS is affiliated to the Judicial Police, unlike the UISP, which was directly affiliated to the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN).[ citation needed ]
