A student opened fire inside a school in southern Turkey on Wednesday, killing at least four people and wounding 20 others, according to a provincial governor.
The governor, Mukerrem Unluer, of Kahramanmaras Province, told reporters that those killed included a teacher and that the attacker had used guns belonging to his father.
The shooter, who was not immediately identified, was also killed, Mr. Unluer said. The attack took place in the district of Onikisubat.
It was the second school shooting in Turkey in two days.
On Tuesday, a former student opened fire with a pump-action shotgun at a vocational school in the country’s southeast, wounding 16 people, officials said. The attacker killed himself after he was cornered by the police.
There were no immediate indications that the two shootings were related.
