Israeli tunnel hit by cyber attack

In September 2013 the Carmel Tunnel toll road in Haifa was reportedly disrupted by a cyber incident affecting traffic-management cameras and ventilation systems. Israeli authorities later disputed the cyber-attack framing, attributing the outage to a system fault, but several US officials and media reports continued to cite it as an example of OT-targeting attacks.

The tunnel was closed for roughly 20 minutes during the morning rush and again for around eight hours later in the day, causing major traffic congestion through Haifa.
