A former student opened fire at a school in Siverek, in the Sanliurfa district of southeastern Turkey. At least 16 people were injured - among them 10 students, 4 teachers, one police officer and one canteen worker. The attacker, born in 2007, killed himself during the police intervention.

According to Governor Sildak, there is no reason to call the attack terrorism. But 16 injured in a single school is enough to shake an entire country. The young man was a former student who had studied up to ninth grade, and he fired with a pistol.

The panic was total. Students fled the building, some jumped from windows. Scenes we associate with American news, but now happening less than two hours flight from Skopje.

The detail that stands out - the school was not classified as high-risk, so there was no permanent police presence. The question is - which school is high-risk until tragedy happens?

Investigation is ongoing, motive unknown for now. But the facts speak for themselves - a 19-year-old with a gun, a school without security, and 16 injured. Turkey, like the rest of the world, must answer questions nobody likes to ask.
