Deaths from US gunfire in the initial attack edit
Under the Attack section, it states "The Pentagon acknowledged the possibility of US responsibility for some deaths in a news conference on 28 August." and then sites a New York times article about a later airstrike. Is there a source for these deaths or can we qualify this sentence with the later denials by US Central Command? https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2022/02/04/investigation-finds-no-gunfire-injuries-followed-bombing-that-killed-13-us-troops-in-afghanistan/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.119.135 (talk) 21:49, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
Type of bomb? edit
Why is there no information on the type of bomb used? Google search came up with nothing which seems strange. As far as I am aware this is the deadliest suicide bombing in human history committed by a single person, but there is very little information about it. Yodabyte (talk) 05:56, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

British involvement edit
Shouldn’t the list of defenders include British troops who were reportedly (according to cnn) at the scene of the attack? Lucycobra (talk) 22:22, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
