There is no collective punishment, measures aren't being done to punish but to limit the effectiveness of people actively trying to kill them.

destroying homes and hospitals, shutting off critical infrastructure, bombing city blocks is definitely collective punishment.

if hamas built a tunnel under my local hospital, I would not be okay with anyone firing missiles at the hospital.
