The Italian Ministry of Defense said that none of the 20 Italian soldiers on duty at the base were injured.
Italian Defense Minister Lorenzo Guerini is closely following the situation, it added.
Gao, where France's main military base is located in Mali, is also known as the center of Operation Barkhane, which the country has been carrying out in the region since 2013.
