JERUSALEM—A rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel overnight without causing any casualties, Israel’s military said on Saturday.

It was the first rocket to have been fired in nearly a month and a half.

In mid-April, a rocket-propelled grenade struck an Israeli school bus, killing a teenager and triggering the deadliest clashes since Israel’s devastating 22-day assault on the Palestinian territory to stop such attacks in 2008-2009.
