Aysenur Eygi, a 26-year-old activist, was shot and killed by Israeli soldiers during a protest against settlement expansion, raising questions about the use of lethal force.
Eygi's death, described by witnesses and an autopsy as the result of a sniper's bullet to her head, occurred after protests had ended and in the absence of violence.
The Israeli Defense Forces stated they are investigating the incident, suggesting their fire was a response to a threat, though eyewitness accounts dispute this justification.
Eygi's killing marks another incident in a troubling pattern of violence, as her death echoes a recent case involving a teenage girl shot by Israeli snipers.
