This situation as any other pathological situation; I tell my kids (10 and 13) that there are different people in this world. They are bad people and best thing is when you notice that a boy/girl is bad - just get away from those people. I also tell them that not all people are bad, of course, but I don’t lie to them.

Only in Belgrade. Thats why I, more or less, dont live there anymore. I'm in a smaller town when people are tottaly different than Belgrade. You can go out on the street and talk with total stranger like you know each other for years.
But hardly unlikely without foreign meddling.
I agree. It's important to explain this madness to your daughter in words that she understands/is able to cope with. Remain available for her if she wishes to talk to you and/or she could write down her thoughts or draw? Your daughter will need to process this. Perhaps keep her at home for a few days, if she is really upset? That said, she may need her peers as well.
From the first session with the C's (16 July 1994):
If you notice that she receptive and seeking deeper answers (such as "why is this even happening?"), you could use this opportunity to give a contextual overview of the world we live in. For example, you could start telling her that there are different forces at play (some light, some dark, some in-between). These forces have different perceptions of the world and, as a result, some outcomes can be quite violent. From an individual point of view, things may seem terrible and bring forth a great amount of fear, but it is important not to neglect the bigger picture, which is about balance. Turmoil is part of the balancing process.

And then you follow up with some deep breathing exercises.
Yeah. I didn't sleep well one night prior to this horrible event to. I have very weird feelings of some dark energy influenced my thinking. It was not pleasant. I start immediately to focus my thoughts to Laura and repeat Prayer of the Soul in my mind. I couldn't speak the words loud because my wife was sleeping but it helped. I don't know if this is related to events wich followed because I live far away in Australia on the peaceful farm with the animals but...who knows.I had weird dreams lately too, like killing people with knife. Aside from that my energy is so low and I'm fighting every day to stay focus and do something constructive but could be because of spring.
Chronology of mass murders in Serbia in the 21st century
BELGRADE - In just two days, two mass murders took place in Belgrade, and in the past two decades, five mass murders have been recorded in Serbia.
Allegedly damaged family relations were the motive for Dragan Čedić to kill his ex-wife and six other people in Leskovac in 2002.
Everything happened in less than half an hour, and on that occasion Čedić wounded four more people. After the crime, the killer disappeared.
His lifeless body was found 40 days later in the atar of a Leskovac village.
Five years later, in July 2007, Jabukovac near Negotin was added to the map of mass crimes. Nikola Radosavljević killed nine and wounded two people with a hunting rifle. Among the victims was a fifteen-year-old child.
Radisavljević was arrested at the cemetery after the crime. An expert examination established that he had psychological problems, for which he was referred for treatment.
The murder of 13 residents of the village of Velika Ivanča near Mladenovac is the most massive crime recorded in Serbia. In April 2013, Ljubiša Bogdanavić killed 12 adults and a two-year-old child.
He killed people while they were sleeping, and some, as it was said at the time, opened the door for him without expecting to shoot at them. When he saw the police, Bogdanović shot himself. He died a few days later.
In May 2015, the day after the wedding, the groom's father, Rade Šefer, killed six people. First, he killed his wife's parents in the village of Orom near Kanjiža. Then he went to Martonoš and shot at people who were still sleeping. He killed his wife, daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law's mother and father.
In the end, Schaefer himself lost his life. The media reported at the time that he was killed by one of the guests whose wife Šefer wounded during the shooting.
In July 2016, another mass murder took place. Siniša Zlatić killed his wife and four other people in a cafe in Žitište. 21 people were wounded in the shooting. Zlatić was arrested and sentenced to 40 years in prison.

Those are staged protest. There were real ones by the real oposition, and more massive, but controled news dont show it.Interesting - didn't take long for massive protests to begin, according to France24:
Tens of thousands protest gun violence in Serbia following shootings
Tens of thousands of Serbians protested on Monday, demanding better security, a ban on violent TV content and the resignation of key ministers, days after two mass shootings killed 17 people.
Makes me think there has been some sort of push in Serbia to remove weapons for some time, as if the recent shootings were the emotional trigger required for people to call for the banning of guns themselves, prior to any government decision.
