The local authorities said that while none of the projectiles launched had landed in the city, with any damage or casualties unclear.
Palestinian reports suggest that three projectiles had been fired in total, but one of them fell in the enclave itself.
The launch comes after Israel closed Gaza’s fishing area in response to the incendiary balloon launches throughout the day, which set off about 40 fires in Israel’s south.
Late on Saturday, the Gaza terrorist groups also fired a rocket into Israel’s south, with no casualties or damage reported in the incident.
The IDF retaliated with strikes on Hamas positions inside the restive coastal enclave.
