Rachel corrie (April 1979- March 2003) was an american peace activist and member of International solidarity movement (ISM) . She traveled to the Gaza Strip during the Second Intifada. She was killed by a Caterpillar D9 armoured bulldozer operated by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) during a protest against the destruction of Palestinian homes by the IDF in the Gaza Strip.The details of the events surrounding Corrie’s death are disputed; an Israeli military investigation ruled the death was an accident, while some of the ISM activists present at the scene allege Corrie was run over deliberately. ISM members have also stated that the driver lost sight of Corrie before she was injured, or did not see her at all.
