]]> Kenyan authorities say all 94 people unaccounted for after Tuesday’s terrorist attack on luxury hotel complex in Nairobi have been traced.

Five of the jihadis responsible for the shooting and bombing have been killed.

The death toll from the  onslaught is at least 21.

Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta vows that his security forces will bring to book any other involved in Tuesday’s terrorist attack at the Westgate  Centre.

Al Shabaab, the Somali-based terror group has claimed responsibility, saying the operation was in retaliation for US President Donald Trump recognizing  Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Previous Al Shabaab attacks on Kenyan targets have been in response to that country’s military and political support for the Somali government.
