FDP didn't leave, they only planned to do so, but could not, because they have been kicked out of the coalition before.

Kind of.

Chancellor Scholz removed Christian Lindner from the position as Finance Minister.

The FDP then left the coalition. Die ZEIT writes:

"Die FDP zieht alle ihre Minister aus der Bundesregierung zurück. Sie wollten ihren Rücktritt geschlossen beim Bundespräsidenten einreichen, kündigte Fraktionschef Christian Dürr in Berlin an. Damit beendet die FDP das Dreierbündnis der Ampelkoalition."

One of the FDP ministers left the FDP and stayed in the Scholz government.
