September 24, 2013  02:32
Kenyan security forces say they are in the final stages of clearing the Westgate shopping complex in Nairobi, and ending the deadly three-day siege.

Explosions and heavy gunfire were reported earlier as soldiers stormed the mall, where suspected al-Shabab militants are thought to be holed up.

The Kenya Defence Forces said three "terrorists" had been killed and all escape routes sealed off.

Flames and thick smoke continued to rise from the complex as darkness fell.
