Belarus' Interior Ministry says a high school student has stabbed and killed his teacher and a classmate at a high school.
The ministry said the tenth-grader attacked the history teacher before she started her lesson Monday. He also stabbed two classmates who tried to protect the teacher at a school in the town of Stolbtsy, 65 kilometers (40 miles) southwest of the capital, Minsk.
The attacker then walked over to a neighboring class and stabbed another student. The teacher and one of the students he attacked died on the spot, and two others were hospitalized.
