Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip have fired a rocket into southern Israel, prompting the Israeli military to respond with air strikes and tank fire on targets inside Gaza. No injuries were reported on either side.
The Israeli military said the rocket landed on Sunday in the southern border town of Sderot, a frequent target of Palestinian rocket fire. It said there were no reports of damage or injuries.
Shortly afterward, the military said Israeli aircraft and tanks targeted two posts belonging to the Hamas militant group in northern Gaza.
Hamas officials said a training camp in northern Gaza was targeted, but the camp had been evacuated after the rocket was fired in anticipation of an Israeli reprisal.
Israel and Hamas fought a 50-day war in the summer of 2014. Since then, a ceasefire has largely held. But militants in Gaza occasionally launch rockets toward Israel.
Israel holds Hamas, which controls Gaza, responsible for all attacks emanating from the territory.
