The statement added: “The IDF expresses its deepest regret over the death of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi.”<\/p>\n

However, the US – Israel’s key ally – reacted angrily. Its Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, said the IDF\u2019s investigation appeared to show Ms Eygi’s death was \u201cunprovoked and unjustified\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo-one should be shot and killed for attending a protest,\u201d Mr Blinken told reporters shortly after the findings were released.<\/p>\n

The White House had previously deplored Ms Eygi\u2019s killing as a \u201ctragic loss\u201d, while Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had branded the Israeli action as “barbaric”.<\/p>\n

In its statement, the IDF said the “incident” had taken place during “a violent riot in which dozens of Palestinian suspects burned tires and hurled rocks toward security forces at the Beita Junction.”<\/p>\n

But the protest group which Ms Eygi had been with at the time of the demonstration dismissed claims it threw rocks at Israeli soldiers, saying such assertions were \u201cfalse\u201d. They said their protest had been peaceful.<\/p>\n

Ms Eygi had been a member of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), a pro-Palestinian organisation which takes part in weekly demonstrations at Beita against Israeli settlements.<\/p>\n

A fellow protester had previously told the BBC that last Friday\u2019s demonstration had been Ms Eygi’s first time attending a protest with the ISM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
