Recent University of Washington graduate killed during protest in West Bank

Описание: A 26-year-old American woman who was fatally shot while demonstrating against settlements in the West Bank on Friday was a recent University of Washington graduate, the university said.

Aysenur Ezgi Eygi was attending a weekly demonstration against settlement expansion when she was shot by Israeli soldiers, witnesses told The Associated Press.

UW President Ana Mari Cauce released a statement Friday afternoon confirming Eygi was a recent graduate, adding that Eygi was “a peer mentor in psychology who helped welcome new students to the department and provided a positive influence in their lives.”
