Activist and Israeli Labor party member Yair (Yaya) Fink launched on Monday an online donation campaign for the Palestinian residents of Huwara village in the West Bank, whose homes, shops and cars were damaged by settlers.

Within the first 24 hours of the initiative, over 1 million Israeli shekels ($272,500) were donated by over 7,000 Israelis, with money still flowing in.
