The Israel Defense Forces says a rocket launched from the Gaza Strip landed in an open field near the southern town of Nahal Oz.

There are no reports of injuries or damage in the attack.

The IDF says the Iron Dome air defense system was not used as the projectile was predicted to land in an unpopulated area.
