BBC: Israeli air strikes have cut off electricity in most of Gaza City. The attacks come amid a continuing but sporadic exchange of fire between Israeli forces and Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip. The latest violence erupted despite the militant group Islamic Jihad joining Hamas in saying it would observe a truce if Israel stopped the attacks. During the day, Hamas released a video of an Israeli who was kidnapped last week [from Jerusalem] and later found dead. Businessman Sasson Nouriel was shown sitting blindfolded under the green banner of Hamas.
As well as the air strikes, the Israeli army also ordered artillery to fire on northern Gaza. And in a pre-dawn operation, Israeli troops raided offices belonging to the Hamas and Islamic Jihad militant groups in the West Bank.

This is what happens when Abbas refuses to clean up his OWN house: the IDF has to do it for him.
I think this is a bilateral operation with the PA providing the intelligence and the IDF the firepower.
