The projectile, launched from the coastal enclave on Monday, landed in open terrain in southern Israel, causing no damage.
In a tweet, the army said tanks fired at the terrorist group's positions in retaliation for the attack.
Sirens warning of incoming rockets were not activated as the projectile fell too far from any community to pose danger, an IDF spokesperson said in a statement.
Israel holds Hamas responsible for all acts of aggression issuing from the coastal territory.
