Ezgi Eygi

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tuesday urged Israel to reassess its military rules of engagement following the death of Turkish-American activist Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, who was killed by an Israeli sniper in the occupied West Bank.

The United States urged Israel on Monday to conduct a "swift, thorough, and transparent investigation" into the death of Turkish-American activist Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, who was killed in the occupied West Bank.

The U.S. is calling for Israel to publicly release their findings regarding the incident.

Hundreds of Palestinians in the West Bank city of Nablus paid farewell on Monday to Turkish-American activist Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, who was killed by Israeli forces on Sept. 6.

The funeral procession began from Rafidia Government Hospital in Nablus, with mourners walking through several streets, chanting slogans condemning Israeli actions and praising foreign supporters.

The family of Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, a Turkish American activist killed by Israeli forces during a protest in the occupied West Bank, is urging the Biden administration to conduct an independent investigation into her death.

Eygi, 26, was shot during a demonstration against illegal Israeli settlements in Beita, part of the Nablus district.
