Statement from Vice President Kamala Harris on Aysenur Eygi 
The killing of Aysenur Eygi is a horrific tragedy that never should 
have happened. Doug and I are keeping her family and loved ones in our 
prayers. Aysenur was peacefully protesting in the West Bank—standing up 
against the expansion of settlements—when her young life was senselessly
 cut short. No one should be killed for participating in a peaceful 
protest. The shooting that led to her death is unacceptable and raises 
legitimate questions about the conduct of IDF personnel in the West 
Bank.  Israel must do more to ensure that incidents like this never 
happen again.
 
Israel’s preliminary investigation indicated it 
was the result of a tragic error for which the IDF is responsible. We 
will continue to press the government of Israel for answers and for 
continued access to the findings of the investigation so we can have 
confidence in the results. There must be full accountability.
 
The
 United States will continue to hold accountable anyone in the West Bank
 – Israelis and Palestinians – who stokes violence and undermines peace 
and stability.
