Shebab threatens to kill hostages held in Nairobi mall

NAIROBI: Somali Shebab militants on Monday threatened to kill hostages they are holding in a Nairobi shopping mall as Kenyan troops move to end their siege.

"We authorize the mujahideen inside the building to take actions against the prisoners as much as they are pressed," Ali Mohamud Rage said in a statement posted on an Islamist website.

"We are telling Christians advancing onto the mujahideen to have mercy for their prisoners who will bear the brunt of any force directed against the mujahedeen," Rage added.

The al-Qaida linked group claimed to be in contact with the fighters inside the mall. It also said the gunmen were battling both Kenyan and Israeli forces.

As the stand-off entered its third day, sustained bursts of rapid gunfire erupted at dawn and lasted 15 minutes, and soldiers posted around the complex ducked for cover.

This was followed by three big explosions, AFP correspondents at the scene said.

The Shebab have not said how many people were being held by the dozen-or-so attackers, who marched into the sprawling four-storey complex at midday Saturday, spraying shoppers with machine gunfire and tossing grenades.
