Biden expresses anger over the murder of American activist in the West Bank.


President Biden expressed deep sadness and outrage over the killing of American activist Aysenur Eygi by an Israeli soldier at a West Bank protest. He called for "full accountability" from Israel for her death, stating that the shooting was "totally unacceptable." The Israeli military claimed it was likely an unintentional strike, a finding that the U.S. expressed confidence in. Vice President Kamala Harris also condemned the killing, raising questions about the conduct of the Israeli military. While not addressing eyewitness accounts disputing Israel's version of events, Biden emphasized the need for accountability and condemned violence from both Israeli settlers and Palestinian terrorists in the West Bank.
