Turkey School Shootings Shock Nation

The province of Kahramanmaras was the site of a horrific attack on Wednesday as a teenage student opened fire in two classrooms, killing eight fellow pupils and one teacher.

This tragedy follows a separate shooting just 24 hours earlier that left 16 people injured at a high school in a neighboring province.

Turkish authorities have ordered the arrest of dozens of individuals accused of praising the attacks online, as investigators find links between the suspect and infamous mass killers from the United States.

The back-to-back incidents have sent shockwaves across the country, leading to calls for an urgent review of security protocols in educational institutions.
