Doha: The Ministry of Interior, represented by the Police Academy, achieved a new Arab milestone by winning first place for the second consecutive year in the Prince Naif Award for Arab Security, in the category of Leading Security Programmes. This reaffirms its leadership in advancing modern security systems at the regional level.

In a statement issued yesterday, the Ministry of Interior said that the award came in recognition of the specialised study submitted by the Academy, on 'Virtual Security Operations Centre,' which examined the centre's role in implementing virtual security exercises using advanced simulation systems that simulate complex security scenarios and devise unconventional solutions to address them.

The study also highlighted the development of mechanisms for activating joint operations rooms between various stakeholders, enhancing security integration and raising the readiness of the national response system.

Secretary-General of the Arab Interior Ministers Council Dr. Mohammad bin Ali Kuman, presented the certificate of achievement to Vice President of the Police Academy and Director of the Police College Lieutenant Colonel Fahd Saeed Al Subaie, during a ceremony held at the General Secretariat headquarters in the Republic of Tunisia.

This achievement reflects the Academy's vital role in preparing and qualifying security cadres and leaders through innovative training programmes and joint professional exercises that embody the Qatari model of modern security leadership and keep pace with the rapid transformations in the security environment at the regional and international levels.
