Shqiponjat (police unit)

The Eagles (Albanian: Shqiponjat) also known as Team Eagles (Skuadra Shqiponjat) is a quick intervention unit of the Albanian State Police. They are the most specialized quick intervention unit after RENEA (Department of Neutralization of Armed Elements, Albanian: Reparti i Neutralizimit të Elementit të Armatosur) and FNSH (Rapid Intervention Force (Albania), Albanian: Forcat e Ndërhyrjes se Shpejtë).[1] The Eagles were disbanded in 2013 but were quickly reinstated in 2014.
