Or you.can build one yourself if you know how to connect wires 🙂. Use simple and cheap shelly 1 wifi module and you can hide it inside the heater if there is a place, or in separate electric box on the power cord.

Which one?  
If you have access to IFTTT in Israel (it’s an internet service!) then the WallPlugs which supports IFTTT will work. Homey doesn’t care which devices is connected via IFTTT. The interface is IFTTT.  
The disadvantage of IFTTT is that there must be an internet connection.

I’m aware that you have internet, otherwise we couldn’t write together… 😂  
Israel is a technologically advanced and progressive country.

My clue was if Israel had possibly blocked the Internet service IFTTT. Not all internet services are available everywhere in the world. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yes, that was a good suggestion from lgy.

This is also good idea  
But is it safe? To cancel the “ground”?

Good point, but I cannot answer.  
But what I noticed is that the adapters only support a maximum of 10 A.

Do you have a photo of the product label including the technical data? Is the font international? Or are is it in Israeli letters?  
I guess you got the info 16 A from the plug, but not from the type plate of the radiator.  
2000 W : 250 V = 8 A  
2000 W : 230 V = 8.7 A

The other way to fix this problem is to make a box with een relaiy. Then you can use a fibaro relais to switch the coil from the relais. The contacts of the relais switch the heater on and off. On this way you do not have a problem with your wall socket
