Four men believed to have been involved in the deadly shopping centre attack in Nairobi last month have been named.

The Kenyan military said Abu Baara al-Sudani, Omar Nabhan, Khattab al-Kene and Umayr  were killed during the standoff, the BBC informs.

The identities of the men come as a private television station in Nairobi obtained and broadcast the CCTV footage from the Nairobi mall. The footage shows no more than four attackers.

Kenya said previously 10-15 militants had been involved.

The al-Shabab group said it carried out the attack on the Westgate mall on September 21, leaving at least 67 dead.

The movement said it carried out the attack in retaliation for Kenyan military operations in Somalia.
