In the latest incident to be caught on a security camera in Israel, one attack has been described as the worst day of violence since tension between the two countries escalated.
The first attack saw a Palestinian, armed with a knife, ram a car – at speed – into a bus stop, then jumped out, stabbing one assailant dead and injuring two others.
Footage showed those waiting at the stop thrown into the air and the driver, a man in a blue T-shirt, running from the car with what appears to be a meat cleaver and hacking at one of the people knocked down. He moved on to start attacking an older looking ultra-orthodox man before being shot by a security guard.
Another attack saw two Palestinians armed with a knife and a gun board a bus and kill two Israelis and injure three more.
Jerusalem has been deadly quiet for the past few days as every citizen from both sides of the war are terrified for their lives – in particular, mothers with children and taxis drivers.
Security companies have reported an increased demand for armed guards while sales of pepper spray to Israelis has spiked.
Tension is rife in the Middle East and smart phones and security cameras are there to capture the most inhumane actions that are going down. A constant stream of violent videos are being viewed, shared and commented on by enthusiasts of social media around the world and the latest has got a great amount of interest from news platforms around the world.
While Israelis are unnerved by the random nature of the attacks, the long-running diplomatic deadlock has left many Palestinians feeling hopeless about their chances of ending nearly half a century of Israeli occupation. The latest spike in violence has also left many concerned that at any moment they could be accused of being a terrorist and shot.
