The US has been rocked by the deadliest mass shooting since 21 small children and teachers were killed in the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, in May 2022.
Eleven victims were killed and another nine wounded when a gunman opened fire inside the Star Ballroom Dance Studio in Monterey Park, California, on Saturday night, shortly after thousands of members of the Asian American community had gathered for Lunar New Year celebrations in the city outside Los Angeles.
