The U.S. confirmed that an American citizen, identified as 19-year-old Furkan Dogan, was killed by multiple gunshots during the Israeli raid on a flotilla carrying activists attempting to run a blockade of the Gaza Strip.
“We have made no decisions at this point on any additional actions our government should take with respect to our citizens,” said U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who urged Israel to investigate swiftly. She said the U.S. is seeking ways to widen the flow of aid to Gaza.
