Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (Nasdaq: GILT, TASE: GILT) has announced a contract worth approximately $4 million to deliver rural connectivity services, including support for banking transactions, in Latin America over a three-year period.

This ensures that we consistently meet the high-quality standards required for business continuity, even in remote areas and in the face of potential disasters."
