The family of a 26-year-old American citizen killed in the occupied West Bank is calling for an independent investigation into her death. The woman, a recent graduate of the University of Washington, was fatally shot during a protest against Israeli settlements. The family claims that an Israeli military shooter was responsible and believes that the Israeli investigation will not be sufficient. The White House has expressed condolences and requested more information from Israel. This incident highlights ongoing tensions in the region and raises concerns about the use of force by Israeli forces. Several other American citizens have also been killed in the West Bank recently.
