One rocket was fired from Gaza into Israel in the early hours of Sunday morning, landing in an open area.
The Israel Defense Forces responded by attacking a Hamas military post in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Israeli military said some 450 Gazans protested near the border fence in solidarity with the Palestinians in Jerusalem on Saturday night. Protesters are "burning tires and throwing explosives. IDF soldiers are spread out at sites along the border and are using riot dispersal methods," the statement said.
According to Palestinian reports, dozens, not hundreds, of Palestinian youth protested at the border.
Following a rise in tensions in Gaza, the IDF increased their presence on the Gaza border, and deployed more Iron Dome batteries in Israel's south.
