Shabaab militants carried out a massacre at a Nairobi mall, shooting at least 39 civilians dead and taking hostages. The group claimed the ongoing attack, saying it was shifting the battleground to Kenya after Kenyan troops had fought Shabaab in Somalia. At least 150 people have been injured in the attack, including several Americans. The attackers, who included a woman, asked Muslims to leave the mall before the attack began.
