This is the horrifying moment a car plowed into ultra-Orthodox Jewish pedestrians in a “terrorist attack” that left at least three injured before the suspects fled the scene in Jerusalem.
Footage of Monday’s shocking attack shows two suspected “terrorists” speeding around the curve of Techelet Mordechai Street, Romema, while three Jews chatted on the street corner.
A white car can be seen driving at a steady pace before veering onto the sidewalk where the pedestrians are, unaware of what is about to happen.
Before the three individuals have a chance to move from their spot, the car accelerates and crashes into them, where they are sent flying through the air.
Two of the Jewish pedestrians are thrown onto the dashboard of the car, while the third is thrown sideways into a brick wall.
In the images you can see a white car speeding down a road in Jerusalem while three Jews stand on the side of the road and talk.

The drivers then swerved towards another parked car before getting out and attempting to open fire on the wounded group.
One of the suspected “Palestinian terrorists” can be seen wielding an improvised “Carlo” submachine gun that appears to be jammed, police reported.
The two attackers hide behind a wall and hit the ground with the firearm, giving two of the Jewish pedestrians extra time to flee the scene.
After a few moments of trying to fix their gun, the suspects decide to drop the gun while the two injured Jewish pedestrians appear to have disappeared.
Once the two armed attackers realize their victims are out of sight, they run in the opposite direction, leaving their destroyed vehicle on the side of another car with both doors wide open.
A large number of officers were sent to the scene to locate the attackers, and images of the incident on social media showed five officers armed with rifles.
The local ambulance service said all three victims were “slightly injured” and police are reportedly still searching for the two attackers.
Footage taken from the scene this morning shows officers detaining at least one man at the scene of the attack.
Palestinians have carried out periodic attacks on Israeli cities and towns since the country’s war against Hamas began on October 7.
A man was detained by Israeli police at the scene of the accident.

The war was sparked by an unprecedented raid into southern Israel in which Hamas and other militants killed about 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapped about 250 hostages.
Israel says militants are still holding around 100 hostages and the remains of more than 30 others.
Since the start of the war, violence has increased in the West Bank.
Over the weekend, a funeral in the West Bank commemorated 14 Palestinians killed during an Israeli raid on the Nur Shams refugee camp, and several dozen people were killed in the southern Gaza city of Rafah when a child was born. orphan.
The Palestinian Red Crescent rescue service said it had recovered all 14 bodies from the Israeli raid on the Nur Shams urban refugee camp in the West Bank that began on Thursday night.
Among the dead were three militants from the Islamic Jihad group and a 15-year-old boy.
The army said it killed 14 militants in the camp and arrested eight suspects. Ten Israeli soldiers and a border police officer were injured.
But Israel said yesterday it will increase “military pressure” on Hamas in a bid to secure the release of Israeli hostages held in Gaza.
Netanyahu threatened to act “in the coming days” and promised that Israeli forces would “deal additional and painful blows” without giving further details.
Despite international outcry, Netanyahu has repeatedly said the military will launch a ground attack on Rafah, a southern Gaza city so far spared an Israeli invasion where more than 1.5 million Palestinians have taken refuge.
Israeli strikes on Rafah on Saturday night killed 22 people, including 18 children, health officials revealed on Sunday.
The war between Israel and Hamas has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials, at least two-thirds of them children and women.
It comes after the conflict, now in its seventh month, has sparked regional unrest pitting Israel and the United States against Iran and allied militant groups across the Middle East.
Israel and Iran exchanged fire directly this month, raising fears of an all-out war.
On April 13, Iran launched a large barrage of more than 300 drones, cruise and ballistic missiles against Israeli targets from bases inside Iran.
According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), most of the attacks were intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome air defense system and with the help of allies, including the United Kingdom and the United States.
Dubbed ‘Operation True Promise,’ the attack was reportedly a retaliation for an Israeli airstrike on April 1 against an Iranian diplomatic base in Damascus, Syria, which killed seven senior officers within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, including General of the Quds Force, Mohammad Reza Zahedi.
Iran’s attack marked the first time in history that Tehran has directly attacked Israel from Iranian territory.
On April 18, Israel responded with airstrikes near Isfahan and Tabriz, Iran.
