Sheikh Jarrah video
- A video from Sheikh Jarrah documenting the incident of throwing Molotov cocktails in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. The video was filmed on the morning of 10 October 2023. The video documents two men, one of whom is tall and full in physique compared to the other. The two men are wearing dark clothes and hoodies covering their heads. Each of the men alternately carries a dark backpack. First, the men walk on the sidewalk down Sultan Suleiman Street in Jerusalem (at 02:57:36). Later, the men return up Sultan Suleiman Street and from there walk through the streets of the Third Wall and the tribes of Israel. At a certain point (starting at 03:40:39) the two separate. The taller of the two men continues to walk alone, carrying a dark bag on his back, crossing Barlev Road and continuing to Shimon Hatzadik Street. The man then stopped, threw a Molotov cocktail at a target on the other side of the fence (the target cannot be seen in the video), and started running up the street (starting at 03:44:27). As a result of the Molotov cocktail throwing, a fire broke out on the other side of the fence (ostensibly the fire broke out in a private garden). The man was then arrested again, throwing another Molotov cocktail at what appeared to be a residential fence and walking up the street (starting at 03:45:17). As the footage indicates, the Molotov cocktail shattered and ignited on a stone fence. The man then lights another Molotov cocktail, crosses the road with the Molotov cocktail in his hand, and throws it at a target that cannot be seen (starting at 03:45:46). As a result of the throwing, the Molotov cocktail ignites on the other side of the fence. From there, the man fled through Shimon Hatzadik Street toward Barlev Road (starting at 03:45:58) and crossed Barlev Road by running through a crosswalk.

Later on, a figure is documented passing by the Shabbat Square. The figure stands near the front of Bank Leumi and throws three Molotov cocktails at the front of the bank. As a result of the throwing of Molotov cocktails, the front of the bank burns. Later, the character crosses the road walking and walks away.

Mercantile Bank Video
- The Mercantile Bank video documents the incident of throwing Molotov cocktails at the Mercantile Bank branch on Hagai Street on the morning of 27 October 2023, shortly after the incident at Bank Leumi. In the Mercantile Bank video, a man is seen wearing dark clothes, dark shoes, wearing a hoodie and carrying a dark backpack. The man walks from Shabbat Square in the direction of Malchei Yisrael Street and from there on Mordechai and Hagai streets. The man then leaned over and later stood up and threw three Molotov cocktails at a Mercantile bank, creating a fire in the front.

The court video
- The court's video documents the incident of Molotov cocktails being thrown at the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court. This incident also took place on the morning of 27 October 2023, after Molotov cocktails were thrown at Discount Bank and Mercantile Bank. The court video shows a man passing by wearing dark clothes, dark shoes, a backpack, without a hat with a dark kippah on his head. The man walks through the streets of Leib Dayan, Dalman, Shomrei Emunim, the tribes of Israel and the Third Wall, Yahya Adham (since the man has been documented wearing a hoodie), the Prophets, the A.H., Queen Helenia, Cheshin - through Bezalel College. On Cheshin Street, opposite the Magistrate's Court, the man stood and threw six Molotov cocktails at the Magistrate's Court (starting at 04:46:06). It should be noted that while the indictment attributes the throwing of seven Molotov cocktails at the Magistrate's Court, according to the footage in the video, one can get the impression of throwing only six Molotov cocktails (it seems that when the second cocktail is thrown, the bottle splits in two in the midst of the throwing, and perhaps this is what the accuser intended). After throwing Molotov cocktails, the man walks through the streets of Mishol Gevurah, the tribes of Israel, G-d, the prophets, Yahya Adhan, the third wall and the tribes of Israel.
