تصاعد عدد حوادث إطلاق النار الجماعي في الولايات المتحدة

By Ninian Carter

January 25, 2023 - بعد أقل من شهر من بداية العام 2023، فقد أكثر من 70 شخصاً حياتهم في حوادث إطلاق النار الجماعي في الولايات المتحدة - الدولة التي يزيد فيها عدد الأسلحة على عدد السكان.

There have already been 40 mass shootings in 2023 in the United States, according to the Gun Violence Archive.

A mass shooting is deemed to have occurred if a minimum of four people have been shot, either wounded or killed, not including the shooter who may also have been killed or injured in the incident.

U.S. mass shootings have been on the rise since the Gun Violence Archive began records in 2014, a year which saw 273 incidents. In 2021 there were 690 mass shootings – a rise of more than 250%. The following year there were 647 mass shootings.

2023 could become the worst year so far. Less than a month into the year, U.S. mass shootings have already killed 73 people and injured 165 others – more incidents than any other January on record.
