According to the findings, the army put the direct cause of the Oct. 15 accident on Shane, saying he had been playing with the LAW anti-tank rocket while he was guarding the ammunition bunker on his Jordan Valley Armored Corps base.

The inquiry also said Shane was a “good and disciplined” soldier.

The army said Dayan has since ordered stricter storage procedures for explosives and ammunition to reduce the possibility of playing with them.

He also ordered soldiers be lectured against playing with weapons or ammunition.
