Kenya mall crisis: Hostages not yet released

None

Hostages being held by al-Qaeda-linked terrorists in a Nairobi mall have not been released despite an earlier statement from the military that "most" had been rescued, a person connected to the situation told The Associated Press on Monday.

 

A person with knowledge of the rescue operation who insisted on anonymity, told AP that no hostages had been released or rescued overnight. Another indication no hostages had been freed: None appeared at the Oshwal Centre, a squat concrete structure that next to the mall that the Red Cross is using as a triage center. (AP)
