And maybe much more importantly here is the desire to reduce press coverage. After all one of Hamas’ key aims (less so for Hezbollah, but also there too) is to make Israel look bad on the global stage (to reduce long-term support for them from western militaries). In a war zone there’s always things that look bad, so Israel has strongly preferred to not have press or reporting of their actions on the battlefield.
