A young passenger was recorded this morning (Sunday) on a public bus of the 'Dan' company in Ramat Gan, approaching a female IDF officer during the ride, spitting at her from a very close distance - and fleeing the bus on foot.The recording went viral, and the officer filed a complaint with the police. An investigation has been opened.

Alongside the investigation, there was an attempt to catch the offender. In a conversation with Channel 12, the officer reported that there had been no prior interaction between her and the spitter. "I was sitting next to him, and he was playing songs loudly from his phone. It bothered me, so I moved seats," she said. "After he spat on me and got off, I was in shock, but I immediately called the driver and then also the police."

She also claimed that she did not recognize the identity of the assailant, but according to her, the content he was watching on his phone before was in Arabic.
