UN Calls for Investigation into Activist's Death
News summary

The United Nations has called for a comprehensive investigation into the shooting death of Aysenur Eygi, a 26-year-old Turkish-American activist, by Israeli forces during a protest against settlement expansion in the occupied West Bank. Eygi was shot in the head in Beita, and her death has prompted international outrage, with the U.S. government and various human rights organizations demanding accountability. UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric emphasized the need for civilian protection and accountability in conflict zones. Eygi's family expressed their shock and grief, labeling her death as unlawful and calling for an independent investigation beyond any Israeli inquiry. The Israel Defense Forces stated they are reviewing the incident while asserting that Eygi was identified as a potential threat during the protest. Eygi, who had recently graduated from the University of Washington, was deeply committed to advocating for Palestinian rights.
