This weekend marked the first anniversary of the killing of Turkish American activist Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi by Israeli forces as she took part in a weekly nonviolent protest against illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. Her death is being investigated by the Turkish government, but despite requests from Eygi’s family, the U.S. has refused to conduct its own independent investigation. Israeli soldiers and settlers have killed at least 10 U.S. citizens since 2022, including at least two in the year since Eygi’s death. No criminal charges have been brought in any of the cases. “There has been no forward motion, really no communication, no political will, … no meaningful pursuit of justice and accountability for my sister,” says Eygi’s sister Ozden Bennett. She calls her sister’s killing “easily the most horrible, unbelievable moment of my life.”
