At least three students have been killed and eight others injured in a shooting at a high school in the country's south, authorities have confirmed.
A 16-year-old student opened fire at Banga National High School in South Cotabato in the southern Philippines, killing two others and himself.
Eight students were injured, four of them critically, with victims aged between 14 and 17, and classes across the Banga municipality were suspended.
The incident is the third school shooting in the Philippines since June, prompting nationwide live shooter drills and calls for stricter firearm storage by parents.
