A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip reportedly landed in southern Israel on Monday, with no injuries reported, according to Israel's army.
A spokesperson said that the rocket was launched at 6:30 a.m. and landed in an open area of the Eshkol regional council.
Israeli forces are currently searching the area. No political group in Gaza has claimed responsibility. Last Wednesday, Israeli forces launched airstrikes on the Gaza Strip after a rocket fired (Israeli news) from the besieged strip exploded near the border fence.
Local sources told Ma’an News Agency that the strikes targeted two locations in western Gaza City used for training by Hamas’ military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, causing material damages to nearby homes.
Although much of the rocket fire has been claimed by small militant groups operating in Gaza, the Israeli army has consistently held the territory's de facto leaders Hamas responsible. Hamas has not claimed responsibility for any rocket attacks since last year's devastating war, and the movement has been attempting to clamp down on many of the smaller armed groups operating in the territory.
Sporadic rocket fire has come from the Gaza Strip this year and has been met with retaliatory Israeli attacks, with the military making at least 49 incursions into the enclave since the start of 2015, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
Last month an Israeli airstrike killed a two-year-old Palestinian and her pregnant mother inside their home.
The Israeli army said at the time the strikes targeted "two Hamas weapon manufacturing facilities in the northern Gaza Strip," and made no mention of hitting civilian homes.
Editor's note: The majority of these weapons are crude shells constructed of little more than tubes with dynamite placed inside. They are fired blindly, without any possibility of aiming them. Injuries and damages are seldom reported, let alone in contrast with the devastation incurred by Israeli air and ground assaults.

Luxembourg Minister of Foreign Affairs Jan Asselborn on Sunday called for the acceleration of reconstruction of Gaza and called upon the world to help Gazans economically.
Asselborn stressed the importance of implementing the reconstruction of Gaza, calling upon the UN, its Relief and Work Agency (UNRWA), and all officials to move the process forward.
Asselborn said, in a press conference in Gaza, that "the situation in the Strip is disastrous and that the people of Gaza, particularly the youth, are not terrorists and we need to acknowledge that they need financial aid, not only social assistance."
"I heard that more than half of Gazans are under 18 years old. They deserve a better life and better education. I am here to demand supporting of Gaza Strip and continuing relief and development projects,” he added.
He called on foreign and Arab donors who convened in October 2014 in Cairo for a two-day conference, and pledged 5.4 billion dollars for reconstruction to abide by their pledges.
The Israeli 50-day-war killed more than 2,200 Palestinians and left tens of thousands of residential houses and economic facilities partially or completely destroyed.
Asselborn has met in Gaza four ministers of the consensus government, as well as UN officials working in Gaza.

A rocket launched from the Gaza Strip landed in southern Israel on Sunday evening, with no reported injuries, according to the Israeli army.
An Israeli army spokesperson said that sirens sounded throughout communities in Shaar HaNegev, an Israeli regional council east of northern Gaza.
She said that the rocket fell in an open area, with no injuries reported, and that Israeli soldiers were searching the area. As tensions have flared across the occupied Palestinian territories, in recent weeks, a number of rockets have been fired out of Gaza into Israel, with no injuries or damages reported. Israel's army has launched "retaliatory air strikes" in nearly every case, according to Ma'an. A strike on Oct. 11 killed a pregnant Palestinian woman, Nour Hassan, and her two-year-old daughter, Rahaf.
The Israeli army said that it had struck "Hamas weapon manufacturing facilities" without mentioning human casualties.
