## Notice

Building on the work the British Embassy in Beirut has been doing under Behavioural Detection Training (BDT) for the past 4 years, the Counter Terrorism Team identified BDT needs at the airport for the Internal Security Forces and developed an implementation plan. This plan aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of Behavioural Detection processes and ensure their continued application and development. The project is part of the ISF Counter Terrorism Portfolio, supporting effective and human rights-compliant prosecution pathways for CT suspects.
