The Libyan Intelligence Service is the primary intelligence agency of Libya, responsible for gathering, analyzing, and disseminating information related to national security. It plays a crucial role in counterintelligence, surveillance, and protecting the state from internal and external threats. Established in the mid-20th century, the agency has undergone significant changes, especially following the fall of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The Libyan Intelligence Service has faced challenges in rebuilding its structure and credibility amid ongoing political instability and conflict within the country.
