There have been reports of several water monitors malfunctioning on Sunday due to a cyberattack targeting monitoring systems that monitor irrigation systems and wastewater treatment systems. 

It has been found that specific water controllers used to irrigate fields in the Jordan Valley, as well as the Galil Sewage Corporation's sewage control system, were damaged as a result. 

To resolve the issue and restore performance to the systems in both major domains, managers of both major systems pushed their teams to work Sunday morning on the issue. There is no information about the source of the cyberattack. 

It was reported several days earlier that a cyberattack was planned in the region. In the wake of the warning, some farmers turned in their irrigation systems for manual operation instead of remote control and disconnected the remote control option. 

As a result, harm was prevented by the attack. According to a report from Cybersecurity Week, many users who left their systems on remote control had their systems compromised. 

The National Cyber Organization alerted the public last week that anti-Israeli cyber attackers were putting up more attacks throughout Ramadan due to the fasting season. The past week was full of massive cyberattacks against Israeli media organizations, medical websites, government websites, and university websites. There were many holidays observed during this time, including Passover. 

According to Ofer Barnea, chief executive officer of the Upper Galilee Agriculture Company, Israel Hayom reported that three days ago the company was notified of a potential cyber attack. It has been instructed that farmers disconnect the controllers to make contact with them. Someone had not disconnected them this morning, but they insisted they had been disabled since the controllers were still active. The total number of victims is seven. The farmers told the directorate that they could not access their controllers. 

The Israeli Postal Company announced on Sunday that some services would not be available on April 5, the first night of Passover, due to a cyberattack. 

There is a group of hackers who gather every April to participate in Israel. This is a one-day hacking event meant to harm Israel's critical infrastructure and let Israel suffer the damage. 

Several companies and entities are involved in these attacks that are part of an annual event called OPIsrael, a hacking event committed to harming Israel's critical infrastructure every April. 

The Hula Valley region is being targeted by armed bands who target thousands of water monitors. This attack has a direct impact on the physical dimension and, beyond simply causing panic and fear, impacts agricultural areas.
