A Saudi man recently filmed two women working in a food truck, posted it online, and angered thousands in the kingdom. 

The 27-second footage shows the girls serving food to several men standing outside their truck.

In it, the man seems upset over the fact that the women are working in the truck and can be heard saying, "God, we ask for you to shelter us."

Just hours after the clip he captured was uploaded on Twitter, it went completely viral on the platform, garnering over 1.47 million views at the time of writing.

The now-viral video divided Saudis on Twitter and saw many of them attack the women for not wearing the hijab correctly, not covering their faces, and wearing make-up in public. Some also criticized them for working in a food truck. 

However, not everyone attacked the servers, many defended them and their right to dress and work in any way they deem fit. 

Thousands also called on authorities to take action against the person who filmed the video saying his actions violated the women's privacy. 

Some defended the man's actions

"I don't think there's any violation of privacy in this clip. What he captured was happening in public."

Others offensively attacked the women with things like this

"They have their hair out, they're wearing make up, they have no gloves on, and you still say they're trying to make a living?"

But many were having none of it

"What does he have to do with the women working there. There's no shame in work and women are now employed in all kinds of sectors. Plus, this is taking place in public, in front of everyone! Go find something else to do other than harming people's daughters." 

"Where's the problem in them working?"

"It's normal. The person who filmed this should be punished over his intentions."

"A sick person always views women as foreign creatures"

"Even though they're honorable and strong."  

Many called on the man to be held accountable

"What did he gain from filming this? Violating people's privacies is a crime and whoever commits it must be held accountable."

In Saudi Arabia, it's illegal to film someone without their knowledge

According to Saudi legal consultant Abdul Karim Al Kadi, the kingdom criminalizes the act of filming someone without their consent. 

The same legislation also prohibits people from posting or sharing footage of anyone without their consent and knowledge. 

Charges related to such offenses include one year of jail time and fines of up to half a million riyals ($133, 295.)
