DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Israeli ground troops for the first time Monday pushed into areas of a central Gaza city where several aid groups are based, in what appeared to be the latest effort to carve up the Palestinian territory with military corridors.

The company won a $149 million missiles contract for Israel’s “Iron Dome” defense system in 2014. Protestors demonstrated outside their Richardson offices a day after at least 94 Palestinians seeking food were reportedly killed.

The Israeli military has killed at least 67 people waiting for UN aid lorries in northern Gaza, the territory's Hamas-run health ministry says. The UN World Food Programme said its 25-truck convoy "encountered massive crowds of hungry civilians which came under gunfire", soon after it crossed from Israel and cleared checkpoints.

Israel Defense Forces pushed into a central Gaza city on Monday for the first time since the war with Hamas began.

The foreign ministers of 25 Western nations have slammed Israel for “drip feeding” aid into the Gaza Strip, as the health ministry in the territory said that more than 1,000 people have been killed seeking humanitarian relief there since late May.

The Israel Defense Forces said it struck "the entrance" of Syria's military headquarters in Damascus on Wednesday.
