The Lajee Centre, a Palestinian children’s centre in Aida Refugee Camp in Bethlehem, has produced a video thanking Celtic with fundraising among football fans raising over £25,000 in less than 24 hours for humanitarian and medical area for the area.

UEFA have opened disciplinary proceedings against the Scottish champions after the Glasgow club’s fans waved Palestinian flags during their Champions League qualifier with Hapoel Be’er Sheva of Israel last Wednesday.

European football’s governing body state that political statements are banned in football, but Celtic’s fans used the occasion to wave Palestinian flags.

Celtic were previously fined £16,000 for waving Palestinian flags during a Champions League qualifying match with KR Reykjavik two years ago.
