      They crossed the border, shot at a bunch of Hamas, bulldozed some low fences around fields and cleared out underbrush - basically making a dirt road.

      And then left after a few hours.

      Er, yes it will.

      Modern urban warfare is an absolute bloodbath for all involved. The battle of Fallujah in Iraq in 2004 was extremely violent and led to many deaths on all sides.
