A young woman walking on a roadside in Azor was followed for several minutes before being attacked from behind, kissed, and groped — all filmed on security cameras in broad daylight, according to journalist Daniel Amram. The suspect has not yet been arrested. Amram said he is working with local residents to identify and locate the man.
A disturbing daytime sexual assault in the central town of Azor has prompted a public outcry after security camera footage captured the incident in full. The victim, a young woman walking along a road while on her phone, was followed by a man who then attacked her from behind, attempted to kiss her, and touched her chest. The footage was published Thursday evening by investigative journalist Daniel Amram, who reported that the suspect remains at large. Amram stated he is cooperating with local residents to identify the man. The incident is the latest in a series of recent assault reports in central Israel — as The Zioneer reported earlier Thursday, a similar broad-daylight assault in Azor filmed earlier this week also triggered widespread anger after the initial suspect was not immediately detained. Police have not yet issued a public statement on this new case. The suspect's identity and motive remain unconfirmed.
