26-year-old Aysenur Ezgi Eygi shot in the head on Friday in Nablus area while protesting against expansion of Israeli settlements in occupied West Bank AMMAN: Jordan’s Foreign Ministry condemned the killing on Friday of a dual US-Turkish citizen while she was taking part in a protest against the expansion of settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The ministry described the incident as a “horrible crime for which those involved must face consequences,” the Jordan News Agency reported. Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, 26, was shot in the head in the Nablus area of the northern West Bank while protesting. Her death was confirmed by the US State Department and the Turkish Foreign Ministry. The latter said she was killed by Israeli soldiers and described the incident as a “murder carried out by the Netanyahu government.” Ambassador Sufian Qudah, a spokesperson for Jordan’s Foreign Ministry, said the killing was a “continuation of the crimes committed by the occupation and its ongoing violations against defenseless civilians in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank.” It “reflects the extreme policies of the Israeli government, which feed into extremism and hatred and encourage settlers to target the killing of Palestinians and anyone who supports the Palestinian people in their struggle for their rightful state,” he added. Qudah urged the international community to live up to its moral and legal obligations by compelling Israel to halt its aggression in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and to hold accountable those who commit crimes against Palestinian civilians.
