The gunmen stormed the shopping mall in Nairobi on Saturday killing at least 20 people in what Kenya's government said could be a terrorist attack, and sending scores fleeing into shops, a cinema and onto the streets in search of safety. Sporadic gun shots could be heard hours after the assault started as soldiers surrounded the mall and police and soldiers combed the building, hunting down the attackers shop by shop. Some local television stations reported hostages had been taken, but there was no official confirmation. REUTERS/Siegfried Modola (KENYA - Tags: CIVIL UNREST)

据红十字会组织提供的信息,肯尼亚首都内罗毕一家购物中心发生的人质劫持事件造成的死亡人数已上升到68人。肯尼亚特种部队仍在继续围剿据守在购物中心内的武装分子。法新社记者称,除枪声外还听到巨大的爆炸声以及直升飞机的盘旋声。警方表示遇难者人数可能继续上升。18名来自索马里的伊斯兰主义武装分子于周日下蒙面午闯入这家富人和外国人喜爱光顾的购物中心。目前仍有部分人质处在绑架者的控制下。此次袭击是对肯尼亚军队参与打击索马里伊斯兰极端武装的报复行为。
