Blinken Calls for Changes in Israeli Conduct
News summary

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has called for significant reforms in the operational conduct of Israeli security forces in the West Bank following the fatal shooting of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, an American-Turkish citizen. Eygi was killed during a protest against settlement expansion, with the Israeli military stating that it was 'highly likely' she was unintentionally hit by fire aimed at another individual. Blinken condemned the incident as 'unprovoked and unjustified,' emphasizing that no one should face gunfire while attending a protest and demanding changes to the rules of engagement for Israeli forces. The incident has reignited discussions about accountability within the Israeli military, particularly in light of previous cases of civilian deaths. While the Israeli army expressed regret and indicated an investigation would be forwarded to military prosecutors, there remains skepticism about the adequacy of their response, with Eygi's family labeling the findings as insufficient. Despite the outcry, there is no indication that the Biden administration plans to modify U.S. military support for Israel.
