On September 26. 2022, a 34-year-old Artem Kazantsev fired upon his former school, with killed victims ranging from 15 to 17, including 11 children. In addition, there are 24 wounded, of which 22 are children. The gunman appeared to have killed himself. He wore all black, wearing a black shirt with a red swastika and a balaclava. There is no known motive.
The man was armed with two pistols and had large amounts of ammunition with magazines that had the word 'hate' written on them. Russian President Vladimir Putin called the attack a "terrorist attack." Investigators are searching his home for neo-nazi ideology. Kremlin spokesperson Dimitri Peskov says that Putin "deeply mourns" the deaths and ordered many medical specialists to be sent to the site.
We await further news.
