Israel has said it has carried out an airstrike in the Gaza Strip on what it called a "Hamas terror infrastructure site".
It was in response to a rocket fired from Gaza into southern Israel on Friday, the military said.
Residents reported hearing two explosions early this morning in the southern Khan Yunis region, an area that contains training sites for Palestinian militants.
No injuries have been immediately reported.
Israeli army spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner said the military "will not permit any attempt to undermine the security and jeopardise the well being of the civilians of Israel".
"The Hamas terrorist organisation is responsible and accountable for today's attack against Israel," he added.
It was the first strike on the Palestinian territory since this summer's conflict.
Israel and Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that rules Gaza, fought a 50-day war between July and August.
Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza fired thousands of rockets and mortars into Israel, which responded with airstrikes and a ground invasion.
During the course of Operation Protective Edge, nearly 2,200 Palestinians died.
UN figures suggest at least 1,523 of those killed were civilians.
Six Israeli civilians and 66 Israeli soldiers also died.
On Friday, fierce clashes erupted in the West Bank between Palestinian protesters and Israeli forces at a military checkpoint and near the village of Turmus Aya. No injuries were reported.
The village was the site of a Palestinian-Israeli scuffle earlier this month during which Palestinian Cabinet minister Ziad Abu Ein collapsed. He later died en route to hospital.
In other developments, the Israeli military has begun relaxing travel restrictions for Palestinian Christians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip for the Christmas holiday season, saying it granted 700 permits for Gazans to travel to Israel, the West Bank and Jordan.
Israel said it was also allowing West Bank Christians to travel to Israel, permitting 500 of them to visit their families in Gaza, subject to security checks.
