    The deadliest killing spree in Europe...!


    On October 17, 2016, the 18-year-old student Vladislav Roslyakov entered the Polytechnic High School in the city of Kerch (Oblast Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Ukraine, since 2014 occupied by Russia in violation of international law)...:

    When he runs out of ammunition, he ignites a home-made incendiary bomb in the school auditorium, to which many teachers and students have taken refuge. It consists of an explosive device and several - bundled - "Molotov cocktails"...:

    The killer's motive could never be ascertained, as he left no letter of confession or "farewell message" - neither digitally nor in writing.

    Investigators suspect, however, based on various statements made by Rosljalkow in his circle of acquaintances, that he heard about the "Columbine High School Massacre" in the USA, in which the two students Dylan Klebold and Eric Harrissie killed 12 classmates and a teacher on April 20, 1999 before killing themselves ...

    ...was so fascinated that he wanted to recreate the event in a way.

    On that day, 20 teachers and students of the polytechnic fell victim to Roslyakov's murderous attack, and another 67 were injured, some of them seriously, through burns...:

    In terms of the number of victims, this is the worst killing spree in recent European history.
