The propability of colateral damage will rise significantly when you have to opt for military special forces units instead of spec ops police units.

The difference is not just their training but also the attitude of the people in such units. Typically police units (e.g. SWAT, GSG 9) are more de-escalation oriented and prefer an ask first then shoot mentality. Typically these units are better in negotiating and gathering valuable information for intervention through negotiating. In general these forces are often more reactively solving conflicts (it can still be considered active though). However, typically they do not have to deal with resistance using military grade weapons.

The far more devastating and deadly force of the resistance that military special forces (e.g. SAS, DEVGRU, Delta Force, KSK, Speznaz) have to deal with, makes them use a more escalation oriented strategy. However, using such strategies predominently makes such units less capable in the fields of information gathering and negotiation. They act more proactively in order to minimize the time they are exposed to the very deadly force of the resistance they face. But thats also the reason why these units are not ideal as anti terror units in ym oppinion (at least not in hostage situations).
