A total of seventy-two people were killed in terrorist attack. Sixty-one civilians, six military personnel, and five of the terrorists. Nearly two hundred were injured and the Kenyan Red Cross lists sixty-five as still missing. The missing may be in a part of the mall where explosions collapsed three floors of the building.

Eleven of the terrorists were captured. The government is working to determine if all of the militants are accounted for, or if some managed to escape. On Monday, they had been claiming that the attackers were made up of foreigners, however, on Tuesday they had no comment about those claims.

The Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government in The Office of the President made the announcement on Twitter saying, "Our forces are combing the mall floor by floor looking for anyone left behind. We believe all hostages have been released."

Monday saw Kenyan troops continue to force their way into the remainder of the mall, going room by room to remove the terrorists. Their efforts were slowed with concern for the safety of hostages.

Court in Egypt Bans Muslim Brotherhood

An Egyptian court banned the Muslim Brotherhood from being involved in politics, on Monday.

It also ordered the seizure of any and all assets belonging to the group.

Being banned is nothing new for the group.

Until former president Morsi made the group legal, they had been banned since being formed eighty-five years ago.
