After the Biden administration applied sanctions on four Israeli settlers for acting violently toward Palestinians and activists in the West Bank, online fundraisers sprang to their aid. One campaign for a settler named Yinon Levi raised over $100,000 in about two weeks from over 4,000 donors. The campaign was started by a fund linked to the local government in the area and facilitated by an app owned by one of Israel’s largest banks. Advocates now say that many of the entities involved in the crowdfunding operation could face sanctions.
