Recall that last Thursday, an ultra-Orthodox young woman in her 20s in advanced pregnancy was attacked by a man she did not know, followed her several meters, turned to her from behind, and placed a pillow cover over her head before attacking her.

The attacker punched her in the head and abdomen until she managed to escape.

After the attack, the woman was taken to a hospital in the city. 

Rabbi Herschel Glock, president of the neighborhood watch group at Stamford Hill, said the woman was left traumatized following the incident.

The community estimates that the background to the attack is antisemitic.

The short video, recorded on a security camera and distributed by the security organization of the Jewish community in London, shows the young woman walking down the alley with a candid man following her. 

After a few seconds, the attacker turns to her, as mentioned, puts a piece of cloth on her head - apparently to prevent identification, and then hits her very hard when he attaches it to the wall.

Shortly afterwards the man released the woman from his grasp and fled the scene.
