Gaza militants fired a Qassam rocket into southern Israel on Sunday, in the latest violation of a truce in the Hamas-ruled territory.

The attack caused neither casualties nor property damage.

Last month, The Israel Air Force bombed a rocket launching device in the Gaza Strip, which was aimed at Israel and set to fire. The IAF strike came after several incidents of rocket and shell fire from Gaza over the course of Yom Kippur, the holiest day on the Jewish calendar.

Approximately 55 rockets and mortar shells have been launched at Israel during the last three months, totaling more than 250 since the end of Operation Cast Lead and more than 750 in 2009, the IDF said in a statement.
