The Tweet claims that the US Airlift in 2021 from Afghanistan was the largest and no other country has done this. Several facts and newspapers point to information that is opposite. India airlifted 170,000 people during the first gulf war between 1990-91. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1990_airlift_of_Indians_from_Kuwait https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathunny_Mathews https://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ians/how-air-india-s-1990-airlift-created-a-guinness-record-116020201070_1.html https://www.thebetterindia.com/15179/heres-need-know-largest-air-evacuation-history-india/ https://inshorts.com/en/news/air-india-holds-world-record-for-largest-airlift-1469814108581 https://frontline.thehindu.com/cover-story/article31766832.ece
