Three dead at this stage is the latest report, all during the initial assault (no hostage killings reported that I can see). 80 of the 170 hostages have been released or managed to escape; Reuters is also reporting that hostages are being released upon recitation of scripture but a bunch of them just managed to slip out.
Nothing's changed in the last 40 minutes or so.
