To make a more general observation, people the world over seem to always think that they can get away with flexing on Russia.
Who actually fired first has not been determined. In Ghana, it can be extremely difficult to obtain visas for travel to other countries. They drove past the pink house a few times, and Baidoo took some pictures. Each layer of scrutiny gives the fraudsters an extra hurdle — but also creates extra business. In the days after the story was published — and in the following months — Lamptey was plagued by journalists, all asking the same questions about her alleged life of crime. When it was open, they flew an American flag and hung up a portrait of Obama.
Idk why, but literally every single nation, ever, has decided to take a cheap shot at Russia at some point in their history. Have a go with Russia, if you must.

The US embassy said on Sunday it would be closed to the public as of Monday, as a result of a security threat it did not specify, and only emergency services would be provided. Visa interviews and other routine services would be cancelled on Monday, the embassy said, adding that it would make an announcement when it was ready to reopen.

The PKK has waged a decades-long armed fight against the Turkish state that has killed tens of thousands of people. The US, in return, has expressed concern about the Turkish operation dubbed "Olive Branch" and urged restraint from Turkey. Who actually fired first has not been determined.
Twenty-year-old Marine Steve Crowley was struck by a bullet and transported to the embassy's secure communication vault along with the rest of personnel serving in the embassy.
Locked behind steel-reinforced doors the Americans waited for help to come and rescue them from the smoke-filled building. After nightfall a Marine unit was able to sneak out a back exit from the vault as the front door was too damaged to open. Finding the embassy empty they led the rest of the people from the vault out into the courtyard.
