Neither Hizbullah nor Iran want war. They both understand the kind of devastation inside their countries if a war begins. At the same time, they are understandably angry at the number of Israeli attacks that are occurring in their countries & have arrived at the conclusion that they won’t just ‘take it’ any longer - hence the current situation. Hizbullah hit military targets for this very reason: if a wider war starts, they will not have been the ones to initiate it. They don’t wish to hit infrastructure or civilian population centers because it would give Israel the excuse to bomb their populations. What Israel chooses to do will be of its own nefarious choosing.
