A school shooting at Ayser Calık Secondary School in Kahramanmaraş has resulted in four fatalities and several injuries. The attacker reportedly entered classrooms armed with multiple guns, raising concerns about school safety in Turkey amidst an investigation into the motive behind these attacks.

At least four people have been killed and several others injured following a shooting at a school in southern Turkey, the local governor has said.

The incident happened at Ayser Calık Secondary School in the Kahramanmaraş area, local media reports.

Turkish media reported that the attacker entered two classrooms and had five guns and seven magazines with him, which allegedly belonged to his father.
