In a statement to Anadolu, Daghlas said the autopsy results indicated Eygi’s cause of death was a gunshot wound inflicted by a sniper, specifically targeting her head. Eygi had been rushed to a nearby hospital where she was declared dead upon arrival.
Eygi, 26, a dual citizen of Turkiye and the US, had been actively involved in solidarity movements supporting Palestinian rights. Her death has sparked outrage and calls for accountability from both local and international communities.
So Israel deployed snipers using lethal ammunition to target protesters with excessive force. In this case, a US citizen. For some reason, this event reminds me of the Boston Massacre. Protesting the slaughter means you get slaughtered too.
I’m guessing we’ve abandoned all pretext of a red line that Israel can cross and they’re free to do whatever, and the whole situation just feels like we’ve decided that we’re on the side of evil because we keep supporting this. Might as well start putting skulls on our caps.
