Four people were killed and 20 others injured in a school shooting in Kahramanmaras, southern Turkey, on Wednesday, marking the second such attack in the country in two days.
Footage shows panic in the schoolyard, with parents rushing to find their children as security forces restricted access to the area. Other images show emergency teams transporting the dead and injured to ambulances.
According to local media, the attack took place at Aysar Kalek Middle School in the Onikisubat district. Authorities said the suspected shooter, a student, used firearms belonging to his father and was also killed.
Reports indicate that one of the victims was a teacher, while the injured were taken to nearby hospitals. Security forces established a cordon around the school as investigations began.
The incident follows a similar attack a day earlier in Siverek, in Sanlıurfa Province, which left 16 people injured.
School attacks remain relatively rare in Turkey.
