'Barbaric intervention': Erdogan condemns killing of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has condemned the killing of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, who was fatally shot by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank on Friday. 

"I condemn Israel's barbaric intervention in a civilian protest against the occupation in the West Bank, and I pray to God to have mercy on our citizen, Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, who lost her life in the attack," he posted on X.

"Turkey will continue to work on every platform to make them answer for their crimes against humanity before the law, and to end this occupation and genocide that has been going on for almost a year, in which Israel has massacred 41,000 people including children, young and old people," he added.
