Palestinians are preparing to hold the funeral of a teenager abducted and murdered in Jerusalem.
The killing of 17-year-old Mohammed Abu Khdair on Wednesday was condemned by both Israeli and Palestinian leaders.
The murder sparked fierce clashes amid claims it was in revenge for the killing of three Israeli youths.
Israel carried out a series of air strikes on Gaza early on Thursday in response to Palestinian militants launching rockets at Israel.
Israeli officials said militants had fired dozens of mortars and rockets since Wednesday morning and two had struck houses, but no-one was injured.
"The Israeli Air Force attacked 15 terror sites in Gaza early Thursday morning," an Israel Defence Forces (IDF) official said.
"The targets included weapons manufacturing sites as well as training facilities," the official added.
Ashraf al-Qidra, from Gaza's ministry of health, told the BBC that 10 Palestinians were injured in the air strikes and taken to hospital.
Israel's air attacks on Gaza should not be seen as part of any action it may be planning to take against Hamas for the kidnapping and murder of the three young Israelis buried earlier this week.
They were an immediate response to a wave of attacks from Gaza in which rockets and mortars were fired at southern Israel.
Israeli military sources say the targets were weapons manufacturing facilities and training sites used by [the militant groups] Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
But the exchange of fire comes at a time of rising tension in Israel and the occupied territories.
Mohammed Abu Khdair's funeral will be held on Thursday following noon prayers at around 13:00 local time (10:00 GMT).
Correspondents say there are fears the funeral will be followed by more clashes like those which erupted outside the teenager's home on Wednesday.
Protesters threw stones at officers, who responded by firing sound bombs, tear gas and rubber bullets.
The boy was seen being forced into a car in Shufat, East Jerusalem, early on Wednesday.
His body was later found, bearing the marks of violence, in West Jerusalem.

On Wednesday, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas accused Jewish settlers of killing the 17-year-old, calling for the "strongest punishment against the murderers".
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the murder was "despicable" and that he had ordered police to work "as quickly as possible to find out who was behind the heinous murder of the youth".

He called on both sides "not to take the law into their own hands".
The family of one of the three murdered Israeli teenagers also issued a statement condemning the latest killing.
"If the Arab youth was murdered because of nationalistic motives, then this is a horrible and horrendous act," the statement from the family of Naftali Frenkel said.
Israeli police have urged caution over the motives for the killing, saying they are still investigating.
The bodies of the three Jewish seminary students were found near the city of Hebron on Monday, two-and-a-half weeks after they were abducted. Their funerals took place on Tuesday.
