Their excuse is that these areas are on the Israeli side of the ceasefire line, and they can do whatever they want on their side of the line. I think they are creating a killing zone of completely cleared land that nobody can cross unseen.

I'm amazed there were 1500 buildings left to demolish.

On paper, ( wars are not fought on paper ), at the start of the SMO there were probably only 2 nations on the planet that could take on Russia single-handed, the US and China. All the talk about the UK being rolled over could be aimed at any other country in the World.

Policy Exchange are a right wing 'think tank' which refuses to reveal the sources of it's funding, is reckoned to be one of the "least transparent" such groups in UK politics, and the Daily Telegraph called it "the largest, but also the most influential think tank on the right". It is likely that their assessment of the state of Public Services, and how to develop them in the future, is coloured by their political alignment, and almost certainly doesn't fit the 'unbiased' claim they make for their work.
