IMO, this gives IL's enemies more excuses to execute more horrible attacks. Considering pagers are civilian products and some of them might actually be delivered to non-Hez civilians, the consequence is pretty dire.

it basically says: we can do whatever we want because we can. Now imagine what the other side is going to reply.

I don't know if you've been following this conflict, but Israel's enemies don't need excuses to attack Israel. They think Israel doesn't have a right to exist, and thus see the very existence of the state of Israel as a provocation that justifies violence against Jews.

    Much like Israel sees Palestine and the Palestinians, whom they refer to as a nation full of "human animals."

They've been firing hundreds of rockets, daily, into Israeli territory. You think they need more excuses to do anything?

The other side was already doing everything it could.

    Definitely not. Hez has showed footages of UAVs inside of IL so potentially they could do some damage. They can also up their missile attacks. And there are other players such as the Houthis. Maybe they just don't want to do it because they figured it's of no good to them at the moment, but maybe the climate changes in the future and they decide to do it anyway.

      This is true of both sides.

      Also important to remember is that Israel evacuated the civilian population in the north of the country due to Hezbollah currently indiscriminately shelling/bombing that area for the past months.

      they launch those UAVs all the time. multiple times a week, sometimes daily. So they're already trying it, they're just not successful.

    Iran/Hezbollah are more known for constantly announcing they're about to do everything they can, and then not doing it. Safer that way.
