KENYA, Nairobi : A Kenyan police officer runs towards a crowd outside the Westgate mall in Nairobi on September 22, 2013. Kenyan troops backed by Israeli forces battled on September 22 to end a siege in an upmarket shopping mall and free hostages held by Somali militants in an attack that has so far killed 59 people. Sporadic gunfire could be heard as Kenyan security officials said they were attempting to kill or capture the remaining attackers and end the 26-hour-long bloodbath at the Westgate mall.
