  "account": "MANILA: A school shooting in the southern Philippines left at least one person dead and four others injured, according to the provincial governor. This grim incident follows two previous shootings at schools in southern Philippines since June. School shootings are an unprecedented occurrence in the country. The Department of Education expressed deep concern over the incident that took place in Banga town of South Cotabato. Governor Reynaldo Tamayo informed Reuters that one person was killed and four wounded, but did not provide further details on the shooter or the extent of the injuries. Police had earlier confirmed the occurrence of a shooting. In late August, a similar incident occurred in Thailand, where a student carried out a shooting rampage at a school on the outskirts of Bangkok.",
