The United States understands Israel is looking into the circumstances of how a Turkish-American citizen was killed last week in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, the U.S. State Department deputy spokesperson said, while encouraging Israel to quickly and robustly conclude its process.
Palestinian and Turkish officials said Israeli troops shot the woman who had been taking part in a protest against settlement expansion.
"We expect that process to be thorough, transparent," deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel told a news briefing.
