Full breach record for Ardom Eilot →Threat-actor claim — not a regulatory filing

ardomeilot.com Ardom Eilot transport & logistics arm of the Ardom Group — the southern-Arava (Israel) kibbutz conglomerate owned by 9 kibbutzim + the Hevel Eilot Regional Council (founded 1978 as a cooperative). It hauls the region's entire output — dates (80,000+ palms, ~7,000 t/yr via Ardom Dates), vegetables (~10,000 t/yr via Ardom Marketing), mail, materials and equipment for the owner-kibbutzim — across Israel, running on the group's own VIA CARGO / EITAM logistics software (Israel's leading transport ERP, acquired 2008). The domain is one branch of the same cooperative ecosystem that also owns Ardom Dates Factories, Ardom Marketing, Ardom Water Association, Ardom Telecomputing (ICT) and Eilat-Eilot Renewable Energy (104 MW solar, target 400 MW by 2040, green hydrogen with H2PRO/Doral). Bottom line: the internal hauler of a kibbutz-built desert economy — and yes, this is definitely them.

Evidence ladder
Attacker assertion only. Establishes: claim date, group, alleged victim.
Unlocks: incident narrative, operational impact. Still no compliance clock.
Unlocks: discovery date, data types, affected count, compliance clock.
Unlocks: materiality, stated response, full audit trail. Ceiling removed.
No regulatory filing corroborates this yet — it is the attacker's own assertion. Watch this entity to be notified the moment a filing corroborates or contradicts it.
