Top score goes to the infamous Egyptian Task Force 777
In 1978 they "rescued" 30 hostages in Cyprus from terrorists but because they forgot to tell the Cypriots they were coming, They lost 15 of their own in a firefight with Cypriot National Guardsmen who thought they were more terrorists.
But it got even more hilarious.... ehm I mean worse
In 1985 they blasted their way onto a hijacked 737 at Malta with all their available explosives killing 20 passengers instantly. They then stormed the plane firing wildly and throwing hand grenades (In a highjacked plan !) . Passengers who fled were cut down on the tarmac having been mistaken for terrorists and were shot dead by snipers . 57 passengers died.
