Thunderbolt Explanation: Thunderbolt -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2014-04-14 10:22:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sa'ka Forces (Arabic: قوات الصاعقة), (also spelled As Saiqa for Thunderbolt), is an Egyptian military Commando force established by Major General Galal Haredi. High fitness is required and training is conducted at the military academy within Al-Sa'ka Academy which was built by Major General Ahmed Ragai Ateya. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day3 hrs (2014-04-15 07:41:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The fighting was not a planned operation but a "reaction" to an attack on the army by members of the group Sunday night, the official said. He said members of a military special forces group called Thunderbolt, with support from local residents, responded with raids on Ansar al-Sharia locations in Benghazi. http://edition.cnn.com/2013/11/25/world/meast/libya-violence...
