Bombarding enemy units on neutral territory

Bombarding enemy units on neutral territory with artillery or naval gunfire -- does this start a war with the neutral country?

I know the developers have tinkered with the game dynamics of patrolling aircraft over neutral territory, but have there been any changes regarding the start of an unintended war with a neutral country when you attack enemy units on neutral territory?

This was not the case in the past, but I am uncertain as to the current status of this dynamic.

Also, can we use direct attacks or patrolling by aircraft units on enemy units in neutral territory without starting a war with the neutral country?

What I know, but have not yet re-tested:

According to the November news, war will now only triggered when bombarding enemies in neutral territory by rockets - in the past this could also happen by other units with too much area damage.

Rockets are the only type of attack that I worry about. A rocket attack can even turn a share map relation to war in some cases, so I try and make sure that I only rocket on enemy or coalition territory.

Thanks, y'all.

I have confirmed that bombarding enemy units in neutral with artillery will not start an unintended war with the neutral country. I have also used patrolling aircraft to pick off stray enemy units in neutral provinces, too, with the same results.

The rocket exception, to the apparent general rule, is duly noted.

No it doesnt, I have witnessed a Franco-Finnish war on my territory, and nothing happened
