Turkey has been shaken by two deadly school shootings

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday that his government would introduce sweeping measures, including restrictions on gun ownership, after two school shootings last week that shocked Turkey.

Eight students aged 10 and 11 and a teacher were killed Wednesday when a 14-year-old student opened fire at a school in the southern province of Kahramanmaras.
