idk anything about israel specifically but operating near large military vehicles really is dangerous and takes a lot of training and discipline to do it well under fire, infantry are usually in concealed cover positions and vehicle crew have limited visibility (with the hatches closed during combat especially) and completely overwhelmed hearing, idk the stats but i've heard from people in the military that especially in training exercises being run over is a common cause of death - there will be soldiers asleep camping in the field or passed out from exhaustion on a march and tank drivers drive right over them without even realizing. it should ideally be less common in combat because of radio communication and coordinated movement (in combat, everyone there is there to do the same/related jobs, where in training its a bunch of unrelated training groups doing different things in the same area), so this is still probably evidence of poor quality troops if not poor leadership and communications.
