Doctors said sirens were being caught in the air in the Israeli Sderot district.
This rocket launch was the first since early May.
Israel’s intentions to annex Jewish settlements in the West Bank and the Jordan Valley are part of a controversial broader peace plan proposed by the United States in January.
The plan calls for the establishment of a Palestinian state in the rest of the West Bank, including the Gaza Strip.
Israel has been applying a crippling blockade to this Palestinian enclave since 2007, when Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip.
Hamas and Israel have fought three times in the past decades. The most recent conflict in 2014 killed 2,251 Palestinians and 74 Israelis.
