Yes, I think ideas about Russia actively causing or encouraging this conflict are overblown but the Kremlin absolutely needs this kind of distraction, plus it feeds into their existing 'anti-imperialist' narrative. At the same time, if Hezbollah does launch an offensive that dangerously undermines Russia's position in Syria, so I suspect that a simmering but lethal conflict at the current level is what Russia sees as optimal. A drawn out strain on Nato-Turkey, etc.
