<p>Health minister Mikhail Murashko said a medical evacuation is planned for 13 children and two adults. He said three are in critical condition.</p>
<p>The shooting on Monday took place at School No 88 in Izhevsk, a city 600 miles east of Moscow in the Udmurtia region.</p>
<p>The gunman, a 34-year-old former pupil of the school, killed himself after the attack.</p>
<p>Russia’s Investigative Committee identified him as Artyom Kazantsev and said he was wearing a black T-shirt bearing “Nazi symbols”.</p>
<p>No details about his motives have been released, and an investigation is under way, but local officials said he was registered as a patient at a psychiatric facility.</p>
<p>The government of Udmurtia said 17 people, including 11 children, were killed in the shooting. According to the Investigative Committee, 24 other people, including 22 children, were wounded.</p>
<p>Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov described the shooting as “a terrorist act” and said President Vladimir Putin has given all the necessary orders to the relevant authorities.</p>
<p>The school educates children between the first and 11th grades.</p>

<p>Russia’s National Guard said Kazantsev used two non-lethal handguns adapted to fire real bullets. The guns were not registered with authorities.</p>
<p>Izhevsk, a city of 640,000, is west of the Ural mountains in central Russia.</p>
<p>School shootings are not common in Russia, but have become more frequent in recent years.</p>
<p>A gunman killed six people in a university in Perm a year ago, and months before that, another attacker opened fire at a school in the city of Kazan, killing seven students and two teachers with a registered weapon.</p>
<p>A student at a college in the Russia-annexed Crimean peninsula killed 20 students and himself in 2018.</p>
<p>Russian authorities last year sought to tighten gun regulations after the shootings.</p>
