Gazans killed him and took his body to Gaza; the IDF realized this in June 2024 and eventually recovered his body.
Mohammad el-Atrash was part of the IDF surveillance structure. His death was part of the reason the leadership was unable to learn details about the attacks on Oct 7.
At the Paga IDF post, 18 IDF soldiers fell dead, the other 22 fell wounded as they were overrun by 60-80 armed Gazans in the early morning of Oct 7.

More details will be released as the Israeli investigation continues.
Mohammad was a Muslim Israeli from the Bedouin community. Israel’s Muslim citizens number about 2 million, about 20% of Israel’s population.
