2 killed in high school shooting in Philippines
Two students were killed and another committed suicide during a high school shooting at a campus in Zamboanga, southern Philippines on Tuesday, officials and police reported. The assailant, who used a high-powered firearm, shot a fellow student before turning the weapon on himself, said a university official. The city's mayor confirmed both victims were students and the shooter.
The university president stated there were no additional fatalities or reported injuries. The university is working with authorities to provide more details as information becomes available. This incident follows a similar attack in Tacloban City in June, where at least three students were killed and around 20 injured after two classmates opened fire on campus.
