How do we know that the Israeli military is doing an effective job at destroying Hamas' ability to fire rockets from Gaza? The last Hamas declaration of responsibility for firing rockets at Israel was over a month ago on March 25. On that day, they fired rockets at Ashdod.
Sporadic rocket fire continues on southern Israel but it is being carried out by smaller Palestinian terrorist organizations. It's also noteworthy to mention the groups are not firing significant barrages. They are firing a handful at a time at best.
There have been a few Hamas claims of responsibility for firing rockets at northern Israel from Lebanon.

President Biden and his national-security team watched with mounting alarm on April 13 as monitors in the White House Situation Room showed 30, then 60, then over 100 Iranian ballistic missiles streaking toward Israel. wsj.com/articles/white…
Iranian cruise missiles and a swarm of drones were already in the air, timed to arrive at the same time as the missiles—a massive barrage that Biden and his aides feared could overwhelm the strengthened defenses they and Israel had spent more than a week preparing.
The scale of Tehran’s first-ever direct attack on Israel matched U.S. spy agencies’ worst-case scenarios, U.S. officials said later. It threatened not only a close U.S. ally, but Biden’s hopes of preventing a six-month Middle East crisis from widening into an all-out regional war

1/ Almost four months into the war Hamas started with Israel, Palestinian armed groups are showing signs of increased cooperation. Terrorist organizations like Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PFLP, and others, are publishing statements and evidence claiming joint attacks against Israel.
2/ There are several possible reasons for this change. Rocket and mortar supply is finite, and 120 days of fighting has likely dwindled the ammunition of most, if not all, terror groups. By cooperating, groups can share resources and attack Israeli targets more effectively.
3/ Increased cooperation can also be a signal to the Israelis that the terror groups in Gaza are still intact and can launch attacks against IDF troops and Israeli cities with some effectiveness.

From my conversations with folks here in Israel, a response is expected following the targeted killing of Saleh al-Arouri and company earlier tonight. However, Hamas is unlikely to have the capability to mount a large-scale, days long attack like it could have before October 7.
Additionally, Hamas may mount attacks from southern Lebanon. Nevertheless, Hezbollah is the key factor. Despite Arouri being killed in Beirut, the operation was very clean. Little collateral damage occurred to Hezbollah.
And I'm not sure if Nasrallah is willing to risk an all-out assault on Israel for Hamas. Though I do expect something so Nasrallah can show that he keeps his word when Israel crosses red lines he drew in previous speeches.
