Coincidentally Israel lost some F16 engines.

The ‘lost’ engines are most likely being sold for scrap metal by Arab metal dealers. Losses like this are common in most armies including the US.

That aside, the theft was obviously an inside job by Israeli military members. There would have been many very large trucks involved in carting these things off the airbase - not something that happens casually like stealing night vision goggles or some such.
