Russia Mourns Students, Staff Killed In Kazan School

A woman cries at a makeshift memorial for victims of the shooting at School No. 175 in Kazan on May 12, 2021. NATALIA KOLESNIKOVA / AFPNine students and staff killed by a teenage gunman at a Russian school were laid to rest Wednesday as officials called for tighter controls on guns and the internet.

“My niece was like a shining star: she took off, lit up and faded away,” her aunt Anna Ignatieva told AFP, crying and wearing a black scarf. Svetlana Petrenko, a spokeswoman for the Investigative Committee, which probes major crimes, said Wednesday that Galyaviev suffered from a brain disorder and had repeatedly sought medical attention for severe headaches.

Galyaviev was shown in interrogation footage leaked online claiming he was God and that he had “a monster” inside him. Twenty children including some who sustained injuries while attempting to escape the school building were hospitalised, regional authorities said on Wednesday. Three adults were also hospitalised.After the attack, Putin offered condolences to the families of the victims and urged lawmakers to make the process of legally obtaining a firearm more strict.

The Russia-born founder of encrypted messenger Telegram, Pavel Durov, said Wednesday that his team had “acted quickly” to block the gunman’s account, one hour after receiving initial complaints about his channel.Buying firearms legally is also not easy, although it is possible to register hunting rifles.
