{{Cquote|Eyewitnesses who were at the scene of the car-ramming are convinced that it was a terrorist attack. In the footage of the incident, the driver can be seen driving for several meters while another Haredi boy hangs on to his vehicle and finally falls.
Yaakov Zimberg, an eyewitness, told N12: "The bus arrived, the guys blocked it. He called for help, he had an Arab voice. They touched his windshield, blocked him and hit him on the windshield. He decided out of nowhere to press the gas pedal."
Dubi Cohen, another eyewitness, said: "There were a lot of guys in front of him. He just threw a lot of guys away. I saw with my own eyes two guys being dragged on his wheel."
Moshe Ben Tovim, who was present at the event, said: "Another guy hung onto the bus and fell, he is in good condition. The same driver continued at the same speed and someone else got between his tires and the end is known. This is not an accident, this is a terrorist attack for all intents and purposes. It was a great miracle that nothing more happened.}}
