Usually an invasion entails an intent to capture territory and occupy. A suicide terror attack is qualitatively different even if it’s large-scale. The boots on the ground could just as well have been rockets, whereas an invasion needs a longer term presence.
Palestinians crossed into israel from israel (occupied territories by israel). How can you invade yourself?

Gaza was not occupied. There was zero military presence in Gaza prior to October 7th.
Aim of an invasion is by definition to conquer.
