Who knows his situation in urbanwarfare, may be to open wood doors or to cut long cables it could be everything, seems to be a important tool for this SSG soldier.

if I remember correctly, it was a house in sector G-6 in Islamabad, not the embassy where the Afghan terrorists belonging to Northern Alliance abducted the school bus and then took the hostages inside a private house and took the occupants of the house as hostages as well.

then interior minister Gen (r) Nasir Ullah Baber oversaw the operation... the AL Zarar unit wall called in and while an undisclosed number (maybe a platoon) of commandos's surrounded the place and covered all possible escape routes. only 4 commandos performed the breach and made two entry points with distracting explosions and then clinically finished the 4 terrorists off with short bursts of MP5. the assault team wore all black overalls and had their faces concealed under gas masks.
I forgot the terrorist demands if it was money or giving "Afghan" land or freeing some terrorists.the demands were definitely something which showed that terrorists were not expecting them to be fulfilled.

the only casualties were the 4 dead terrorists. no hostages or the members of assault team were hurt.

(food and money was demanded and the bus was later taken to Afghan embassy)

(what followed in Kabul was tragic because a mob of angry Afghans raided the Pakistani embassy and dragged 2 guys out and lynched them to death).
