The attack in the southern province of Kahramanmaras province was Turkey’s second such incident in as many days, shocking a country where school shootings are a rare occurrence.

Interior Minister Mustafa Ciftci confirmed nine deaths, with 13 wounded — six in intensive care, three of them in a critical condition.

State-run broadcaster, TRT, identified the latest shooter as Isa Aras Mersinli and said his father was detained for questioning.

Turkish authorities imposed a ban on broadcasting “traumatic” images from the shooting, urging media outlets to limit coverage to official statements.

Parents rushed to the school in Kahramanmaras’s Onikisubat district after reports of an armed attack, NTV television reported.
