Death of American citizen by IDF in West Bank unacceptable: Blinken

Death of American citizen by IDF in West Bank unacceptable: Blinken

Washington, Sep 10 (UNI) The killing of an American citizen by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in the West Bank is not acceptable, and no one should be shot and killed for attending a protest, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said during a press conference in London on Tuesday.
“The killing was both unprovoked and unjustified. No one should be shot and killed for attending a protest,” Blinken told reporters when asked about the killing of US citizen Aysenur Ezgi Eygi in the West Bank.
Blinken was responding to a reporter's question about an IDF investigation that concluded on Tuesday that it was "highly likely" that Eygi was hit "indicrectly and unintentionally" by Israeli fire.

Jerusalem, Jan 22 (UNI) Four people were injured late Tuesday in a stabbing attack in central Tel Aviv. The attacker, identified as a Moroccan-born U.S. permanent resident, was shot and "neutralised."
Police Spokesman Aryeh Doron said the assailant, trying to flee the scene, was shot by a civilian passerby and was "neutralised."
Meanwhile, Israel's state-owned Kan TV reported that the suspect was killed and published photos of documents found on his body.
