MOSCOW (AP) — A school shooting erupted Tuesday in the Russian city of Kazan, leaving 11 people dead and four wounded, Russia’s state RIA Novosti news agency reported, citing emergency services.

According to the Interfax news agency, two gunmen opened fire in the school, and one of them — a 17-year-old — was apprehended. Local officials said some children were evacuated from the school but others still remained in the building.

Authorities said additional security measures have been put into place in all schools in Kazan, the capital of Russia’s Tatarstan region, roughly 700 kilometers (430 miles) east of Moscow.

Police have opened a criminal investigation into the incident.

While school shootings are relatively rare in Russia, there have been several violent attacks on schools in recent years, mostly carried out by students.

too lazy to look it up...but I assume Russia has fairly strict gun laws. Does not matter really. As long as there is a military, police force, etc...it means there are guns in the country and criminals will find a way to grab one... - generally speaking the bad kind of people have them the tighter the restrictions. See Mexico.

And if the detained attacker says he was under the employ of the US, things will get really hairy

I saw a tweet early this morning that said the detained boy/guy had also died somehow while in custody, but now I am seeing only one shooter instead of two as reported earlier.

who knows?

Do you suppose the Russia "officialdom" screams "USA, USA, USA" when things like this happen on their side of the border?

‘I am like a God’: Kazan school shooter’s chilling message revealed as Putin orders gun control probe after nine killed in attack

11 May, 2021 11:47 / Updated 1 hour ago

A teenager has been detained by security forces in the Russian city of Kazan after a bloody attack at a local school left at least nine dead and more than a dozen wounded on the first day back after a 10-day national holiday.

Media in the country named the suspect as 19-year-old Ilnaz Galyaviev, identified as a former student at School No. 175, where the attack took place on Tuesday morning. He had subsequently gone on to study at the nearby TISBI management university, but a spokesperson for the college told Moscow’s RBC that he had been expelled after falling behind on his studies.

The source told reporters that Galyaviev had “shown himself to be a quiet and non-abrasive student during his studies. He was always neat and calm, and respectful of fellow students and teachers.” The teenager had apparently stopped attending classes in January and lost touch with tutors. “He did not appear to defend his industrial experience project or to sit three state exams, as a result of which he was expelled,” the press office added.

Last week, Galyaviev is reported to have set up a channel on the Telegram service, with messages purporting to be from “God.” In a series of comments written last Thursday, the account announced that “I am like a God.”

The account went on to say that the population of the world were his "slaves," and should kill each other before ultimately killing themselves. He added that there should be no living creatures left in the world, and that life was a "mistake of the universe."

Prior to the shooting, he is reported to have written that he would kill a large number of people before ending his own life. A photograph posted to the channel showed a man resembling the one detained by police posing for a selfie while wearing what appears to be a combat vest and a face covering, emblazoned with the word “Bog,” or “God” in Russian.

Eyewitnesses report hearing an explosion and gunfire coming from the school, as footage emerged of students being treated on the grounds outside for injuries and climbing out of windows to escape the shooting.

The Baza news site quotes Galyaviev’s father as saying that his son was “not religious, and he never expressed or showed any bad thoughts or ideas.”

Rustam Minnikhanov, the president of the majority Muslim Russian region of Tatarstan, where Kazan is located, said that Galyaviev was a registered firearm owner.

Speaking to journalists later on Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russian President Vladimir Putin had given an order to begin an emergency review of gun control legislation. “The fact is that sometimes types of small arms are registered as hunting weapons, which in some countries are defined as assault rifles and so on,” he said. “This, too, will be urgently worked out by the Russian Guard.”
