The protesters chanted and held banners demanding justice for the 26-year-old woman, Aysenur Ezgi.
 
Ezgi was active in the movement for a free Palestine and was part of the University of Washington protest earlier in the spring, expressing the grief the whole community is feeling and devastation over her loss.
 
During the memorial gathering protesters held the young activist’s pictures and signs that read: “Aysenur Ezgi Martyred For Palestine Rest in Power”, “Justice 4 Aysenur”, “Today We Are All Aysenur”, “Resistance is Not Terrorism! Free Palestine!”
 
Aysenur Ezgi died on Friday from critical head injuries after being shot by Israeli occupation forces in Beita, south of Nablus, in the occupied West Bank.
 
The activist – an American of Turkish descent – was shot in the head with live ammunition while participating in the weekly protest against illegal Israeli settlement expansion, the Palestine Chronicle correspondent from the West Bank reported.
 
Medical sources confirmed that she was immediately transported to Rafidia Hospital in Nablus, where she was admitted to the intensive care unit. Despite extensive efforts by medical staff, she succumbed to her severe injuries.
