Kenyan forces 'take control of Westgate mall in Nairobi'

Kenyan security forces have been combing the Nairobi shopping centre attacked by suspected al-Shabab militants, as they attempt to secure the site.

The BBC's Komla Dumor said the authorities were keen to insist they were in control of the situation.

Speaking from a position near the mall, he said the number of troops in the area had dropped in the last 24 hours.
