According to the report, an IDF soldier was mistakenly abandoned in the Gaza Strip earlier this week, in what the military describes as a “grave incident.” On Tuesday, troops of the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit wrapped up an operation in the Morag Corridor area between Rafah and Khan Younis and exited the Strip. “During their return to Israel, an IDF soldier remained alone in the Gaza Strip for approximately 40 minutes,” the military says. The soldier walked until he found troops of the Golani Brigade, while calling “IDF, IDF” so that he wouldn’t be fired upon. “This is a grave incident that is under investigation, from which lessons will be drawn,” the military adds.

That was crucial for the lone IDF, he might be mistakenly killed by the IDF if he did not shout that he is also an IDF. This case is under investigation as to why the said IDF was left alone.

Things like that do happen! There is need to do investigation and find out the reason a soldier was left behind. I think the soldier is definitely at fault. He is probably not actively involved with the troops and might went to attain his own business.

The IDF might also be at fault for not being with the troops. He might have fallen asleep. It is also impossible that he was not with the group.
