STUFF: WORLD NEWS - STORY : New Zealand's leading news and information website

STUFF: WORLD NEWS - STORY : New Zealand's leading news and information website Twenty-three-year-old Rachel Corrie was, according to a witness, lying on the ground in front of an Israeli army bulldozer demolishing a house in the southern Gaza city of Rafah when she was killed.

"The American girl was lying in front of the bulldozer when the bulldozer took sand and put it over her," Ali al-Shaar, a witness to the incident, told Reuters on Sunday.

The Israeli army called the incident a "regrettable accident", but said Corey and other protesters had been acting irresponsibly by "intentionally placing themselves in a combat zone". The army said it was investigating the incident.
