62 confirmed dead in shopping mall siege

The Red Cross says 62 people have been confirmed killed in the siege in Nairobi's shopping mall.

Red Cross officials say the number of people killed in Kenya's bloody shopping mall siege is 62, seven lower than previously reported, due to "double counted bodies".

Kenyan officials say their troops are in control of all floors in the complex, but are still fighting remaining insurgents.
