I don’t think you can say HY”D since he was shot by mistake by a soldier. But we can certainly say Zechuso Yogein Oleinu.
The HY”D is referring to the Palestinian terrorists who are the proximate cause of this man’s death, albeit they didn’t kill him directly. What is the point of your comment?
#1: The terrorists are responsible for his being shot.
