All accounts of phone calls I've seen indicate that they come just a few minutes before the attack. E.g. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/09/world/middleeast/by-phone... Roof knocking sometimes kills people directly, and it's not like they wait to make sure people have left before the main attack. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_knocking

Probably warning time proportional to building size. Over last few days few 13 floors buildings went down with zero casualties and there were multiple recordings of it filmed from cameras positioned on tripods. It's not something that you can do with "few minutes warning before attack"
