Utkarsh555 I'm not sure I agree with your recent move of this article. Can you explain? I think this is a potentially controversial move that should have gone through the proper channels. Same thing for this move.VR _talk 16:38, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Well, I thought that it would be legit enough. But you may decide otherwise. Utkarsh555 (talk) 17:11, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

VR, as of today, the articles were moved back to the original title before Utkarsh's changes after I requested it Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:47, 3 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

This article is incorrect in saying that Pakistani troops rescued the Americans and Foreign Nationals from the burning Embassy building. It is also incorrect that those trapped inside left by a rear door. I was there. I was a Marine Guard. No one rescued us, the Marines were the rescuers. We escaped the fire through a hatch in the Embassy roof. The Pakistani police and troops did not save us. That is false. Embassy Marine (talk) 15:20, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
