Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas announced preparations to file a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) on the killing of Turkish American activist Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, Anadolu reports.

Eygi was shot in her head and killed last week by Israel in the occupied West Bank.

The announcement came during a telephone call Abbas made to Eygi’s father, Mehmet Suat Eygi, according to the official Palestinian news agency Wafa.

Abbas extended condolences to the Turkish people for the killing of Eygi, whom he described as the “brave daughter of Palestine and Turkey who was assassinated at the hands of the Israeli occupation” and an “honest symbol of the solidarity between the brotherly Turkish and Palestinian peoples.”

“The Palestinian leadership was engaged with the US and Turkish authorities to ensure conducting a fair investigation into her killing and that work was underway to file a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) over the crime of her assassination,” he said.
