A shooting at Ateneo de Zamboanga University in the southern Philippines left two students dead, including the Grade 9 gunman who killed a fellow student before taking his own life. The suspect reportedly livestreamed the attack using a body-worn camera. Two others were injured, and authorities secured the campus. Officials are investigating how the firearms were brought in and the motive. This is the second fatal school shooting in the Philippines in two months, following a similar incident in June.
