Kenya mall massacre: Al Shabab threatens to carry out more such attacks
Mogadishu, Somalia: Al Shabab, the terrorist outfit that carried out the Westgate shopping mall massacre in Nairobi, has threatened more such attacks in Kenya, its spokesperson Sheikh Abulaziz Abu Muscab told Al Jazeera TV reporter
AJ: Al-Shabab claims to work to protect Muslims and Somalis in particular. Some of the people killed in this attack suggests otherwise.
SA: History supports our claim. We are the only ones protecting Somalis and Somalia. We are the only group fighting Somalia's historic enemies. We are the only one who can say “no” to Somalis' enemies.
On the loss of lives, there were Kenyan soldiers firing back at our fighters. There was an exchange of gunfire. There is no evidence it was our bullets that killed them.
We released all Muslims when we took control of the mall. Witnesses have backed us on this.
