Israeli war planes have carried out a series of strikes in the Gaza Strip shortly after a rocket from the Palestinian enclave struck the Jewish state, the army says.
A statement from the army said that "in response to rocket fire toward Israel", its "aircraft targeted a terror infrastructure site in the central Gaza Strip and three concealed rocket launchers in the northern Gaza Strip".
"Direct hits were confirmed," the statement said on Friday morning.
There were no immediate reports of injuries in Gaza.
Late on Thursday night, a projectile fired from the Islamist Hamas-run enclave hit southern Israel, a police spokeswoman told AFP, causing no harm or damage.
