    Terror bombing random buildings is what Israel calls the Dahiya doctrine.

    The logic is to harm the civilian population so much that they will then turn against the militants, forcing the enemy to sue for peace.

    They claim civilian buildings are Hezbollah or Hamas without evidence and then bomb them. This terrorizes all the local population to move out of their homes and flee elsewhere.

    The Dahiya doctrine does not work by the way. All it does is create more resistance fighters. America tried doing terrorism in Afghanistan for 20 years and then packed up and left.

    In this instance Israel also likely sent an advance warning. The person filming looks prepared.
