The U.S. urges Israel to investigate the killing of an American woman in the West Bank

Palestinians march to honor Turkish American activist Aysenur Eygi in Nablus, in the Israeli- occupied West Bank, on Sunday. Witnesses say Israeli forces shot Eygi dead during a pro-Palestinian demonstration Friday.

The State Department urged Israel to move quickly to investigate the death of a U.S. woman during a protest against Israeli settlements in the West Bank last week. Eyewitnesses said she was shot in the head by Israeli forces policing the protest. Israeli authorities have said they are investigating the incident.
