It's possible they may now be panicking or at least getting weary from all this. Remember it's been now 50 hours without any sleep for them, perhaps even more if you consider that they had to prepare for this attack. Medically speaking, sleep deprivation is one of the worst stressors to a human being.
If they were on mood altering drugs such as LSD (also used by the Mumbai attackers), the effects of these agents have now worn off and they're left to endure the hangovers.
I suspect that that's the game KDF is playing with them; slow attrition. All men have a breaking point, no matter how radicalized they may be.
My thoughts go out to the hostages still inside. May God come through for them and their families.
