Israel’s military has said it was highly likely its troops fired the shot that killed Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, the American-Turkish woman killed at a protest in the occupied West Bank.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said her death was unintentional and expressed deep regret.

The statement came as Antony Blinken, the US secretary of state, called the killing of the 26-year-old last week “unprovoked and unjustified”.

Speaking on a diplomatic visit to London, Blinken told journalists that Eygi’s death showed the Israeli security forces needed to make fundamental changes to their rules of engagement.

    Populist doesn’t mean bad. But you are correct that it can go both ways. But that is also specifically why I specified non-leninist. Though maybe I should have also specified non-fascist as well. They’re both two sides of the same coin.

    But no. As you put it I was talking the “non spicy” kind generally.
