Holding Out For A Hero but you're a SAS operator defending Nairobi from terrorists

Obi-Wan Nairobi

A British SAS operator, who was in the country to conduct training, responded to the attack and entered the complex. Known by his nom-de-guerre, Christian Craighead, he wore a shield badge on his tactical vest, a balaclava over his face, while indicating an "Agent" insignia to bystanders. He was joined by Slovenian, Dan J. Prastalo, a member of Diplomatic Protective Services Tactical Response Unit (DPS-TRU[22]). Craighead led the group clearing each floor of the office and car park buildings. They were heard shouting call sign "Eagle Eagle Security Forces" as they tried to call out hostages that were hiding. Both individuals were seen on the mainstream media clips escorting groups of hostages and carrying wounded ones, before running back into the complex while the attackers were shooting down on them.

From the 15 to 16 January 2019, a coordinated attack against civilians occurred at the DusitD2 complex in Westlands District, Nairobi, Kenya. The attack began at around 14:30 EAT (UTC+3), shortly after a suicide bomber blew himself up near the center of the complex at a restaurant. Four attackers associated with Harakat Al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen carried out a mass shooting for over 22 hours which left 21 civilians, one Kenyan soldier and all five militants dead.

Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement published through the AS-affiliated Shahada News Agency shortly after the attack, with its external operations branch, the Saleh An-Nabhan Battalion, claiming being responsible.

Kenya’s President Uhuru Kenyatta said that the five militants that carried out the attack were all "eliminated" by security forces following a 19-hour operation led by Kenyan forces.
