Three of the alleged attackers are from the U.S., two are from Somalia and there is one each from Canada, Finland, Kenya and the United Kingdom, according to the list.
TheBlaze has viewed information and names from another Twitter account that surfaced once the original account was taken down, but so far those names are unconfirmed.
The FBI is also now investigating whether or not Americans are involved in the attack, an FBI official told TheBlaze.
On Sunday, Kenyan police said they had launched a “major” assault by security forces to end the two-day hostage situation at Nairobi mall.
Kenya’s Disaster Operation Center said late Sunday that “this will end tonight. Our forces will prevail.”
Word of the Kenyan assault comes shortly after a large blast echoed from the mall, around the start of the operation.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
