Getting to know Nili

The Nili espionage network, also known as Nili Israel, played a significant role in the early 20th-century history of Israel. Nili was a clandestine organization formed by a group of Jewish settlers in Palestine during World War I. They were dedicated to collecting intelligence that would aid the British in their campaign against the Ottoman Empire. Led by Aaron Aaronsohn and his sister Sarah, Nili operated between 1915 and 1917. Their actions were motivated by a desire to support the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine and lessen the influence of the Ottomans. Nili members gathered valuable information about the Ottoman military and conveyed it to the British, who were in conflict with the Ottomans during the war.
