Profile

The Galilee agricultural water pump organization is based in Israel and focuses on providing water pumping solutions for agricultural use. Its core activities involve the installation, operation, and maintenance of water pumps that support irrigation and drainage for farms in the Galilee region. The organization supplies equipment and services that enable farmers to manage water supply and remove excess water from fields. It serves the local agricultural market, contributing to the region’s irrigation infrastructure. By maintaining drainage installations, it helps prevent waterlogging and supports sustainable farming practices. The organization’s headquarters are located in Israel, reflecting its national operational base.

The organization gained public attention after cyber‑attacks in June 2020 targeted its agricultural water drainage installations in two separate regions, though repairs were carried out swiftly and no damage resulted. Prior to those incidents, attackers had attempted to alter chlorine levels in related water treatment systems, a move that could have endangered public health if successful. Israeli officials attributed the initial intrusion to a foreign state actor and responded by issuing password‑security directives for the organization’s operational systems. These events occurred during a period of heightened cyber tensions between nations, with reciprocal attacks affecting other critical infrastructure sectors. The organization’s specialization in agricultural water management makes it a notable component of the region’s water‑security landscape. No further details about its size, ownership, or parent‑subsidiary relationships are provided in the available sources.
