The Tripoli Revolutionaries Brigade, also known as the Free Tripoli Guardian, was a Libyan rebel group formed during the First Libyan Civil War that merged into the Tripoli Protection Force. Originally formed in April 2011 in the opposition stronghold of Benghazi, it later relocated to the Nafusa Mountains, then the closest frontline to Tripoli, before advancing into the city itself in August.

In November 2011, the brigade began taking measures to disband and integrate itself more with the NTC-led new national army, the brigade announced over its Twitter account.
