Israeli forces kill American woman: There has been a war going on between Israel and Hamas for a long time. But Israeli soldiers killed a citizen of friendly country America, which has created a stir. The army shot and killed an American woman on the coast of Palestine. After this incident, it is being speculated that US President Joe Biden may be angry. But the question is, why did the Israeli soldiers kill this woman?
According to reports, the American woman who was shot by Israeli soldiers was involved in a demonstration against settlements in the West Bank of Palestine. An American woman was shot dead by Israeli soldiers for participating in this movement.
America's reaction to the woman's death
US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller confirmed the death of 26-year-old Esenur Ezgi Ezgi, who was born in Turkey. However, he did not say whether the woman was shot by Israeli soldiers or not. A statement issued by the White House said, “We are deeply disturbed by the killing of an American citizen.”
Turkey responded
Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Oncu Kelesi said- 'Iggy was also a Turkish citizen. We condemn this murder committed by the Netanyahu government. We will make every effort to bring her killer to justice.'
What did the Israeli army say?
In this entire case, the Israeli army said, 'We are investigating the news of the killing of a foreign national, while the soldiers opened fire on a person inciting violence in the protest area. We have received information that the person who died due to the bullet had participated in a weekly demonstration in front of the colony area.'
was shot dead in the head
“When Palestinian and international activists were holding mass prayers on a hill in the town of Beta (which is located opposite the Israeli settlement of Aviator) in the northwest bank, Israeli soldiers opened fire,” said Jonathan Pollack, an Israeli citizen who attended the protest. Dr. Ward Wasat, who attended the first aid at the scene, and Dr. Fouad Nafaa, director of the nearby Rafidia hospital (where the woman was brought), said the woman had been shot in the head. Iggy is the third International Solidarity Movement (ISM) activist to die since 2000.
ISM activists often stand between the Israeli army and Palestinians in an attempt to stop Israeli military operations. Previously, two IMS activists, American Rachel Corrie and British photography student Tom Hurndall, died in Gaza in 2003.
Even before this, an American citizen had been murdered
Earlier protests had turned violent. A month earlier, American citizen Amado Sison was shot dead by Israeli soldiers as he tried to escape tear gas and gunfire at a protest.
