Eygi, who was attending a protest in Beita, south of Nablus, was fatally shot in the head by Israeli occupation forces.

In a statement released Friday, al-Resheq criticized the Israeli occupation's brutal tactics, accusing it of targeting those who oppose its aggression and support the Palestinian cause.

He asserted that the bullets used in the attack were supplied by the American administration, which he noted are used to kill Palestinians daily.

Hamas also denounced the killing of the 26-year-old activist, emphasizing that such acts are part of the occupation's broader pattern of violence against solidarity activists. The group labeled these actions as systematic and ongoing, carried out by both Israeli forces and settlers.

The statement from Hamas called on the international community to hold the Israeli government accountable for what they termed “fascist acts” against those who speak out against its policies. (ILKHA)
