Seems so. Maybe they want to set a warning or something like that...

No reason for escalation, though. You'd think the IDF would want to keep the issue on the northern border contained as they commit so many forces to Gaza.

No, absolutely not. Who knows what strategy they have.

To provoke a war on multiple fronts?

Brilliant strategy.

I don't think they would have a hard time to win the war on multiple fronts.

The IDF lost to Hezbollah in 2006 despite heavily outnumbering them.
