Israel acknowledged Tuesday that its forces had likely shot dead an American citizen near a demonstration last week in the occupied West Bank, leading Secretary of State Antony Blinken to call for “fundamental changes” in the way the Israel Defense Forces operates there, “including changes to their rules of engagement.”

       In a statement, the IDF said its initial inquiry found that it was “highly likely” that Aysenur Eygi, 26, had been “unintentionally” hit by fire “which was not aimed at her, but aimed at the key instigator” of what it called a “violent riot” in the West Bank village of Beita, where demonstrators had thrown rocks at security forces.
