However, there have been no immediate reports of injuries or damage from the rocket launch, as reported by The Times of Israel.
Furthermore, Israel also took action in the form of closing the Erez Crossing pedestrian path to the Gaza Strip until further notice.
The rocket attack is said to be in the aftermath of Israel’s closure of the fishing zone in the Gaza Strip, which cuts off the main source of income for Palestinians in the coastal enclave.
