The partner of a Turkish-American activist who was shot dead by Israeli troops in the occupied West Bank last week has said her death was “no accident”. Aysenur Eygi, 26, was killed during a protest in the village of Beita, near Nablus, on Friday while volunteering with the International Solidarity Movement. “An activist and volunteer, Aysenur was peacefully standing for justice as an international observer and witness to Palestinian suffering,” her partner Hamid Ali said.
