New footage from security cameras inside the Kenya mall besieged by terrorists last month shows gunmen talking on their cell phones and praying in between shootings.

The graphic footage, obtained by CNN, is the first view of the mayhem inside the Westgate Mall during the four-day siege that left at least 67 people dead. In the video, militants take turns praying, first removing their shoes and performing a ritual washing.

The soundless footage was taken on Sept. 21, the first day of the attack. Details from the footage match up with the running Twitter commentary by al-Shabaab, the terrorist group that claimed responsibility for the attacks.
