UNESCO approves resolutions on Palestinian heritage
The UNESCO World Heritage Committee adopted four resolutions affirming the invalidity of Israeli procedures regarding Palestinian heritage sites, and kept these sites on the World Heritage in Danger list. The resolutions included the Old City of Jerusalem and its walls, the Old City of Hebron, the Saint Hilarion Monastery in the Gaza Strip, and Beit Jala in southern Jerusalem. The committee emphasized the great religious and cultural significance of Jerusalem and rejected all Israeli measures that alter the nature or legal status of these sites, considering them null and void. It also called for the dispatch of monitoring missions to assess the condition of these sites and to provide recommendations for their protection. Additionally, the committee condemned Israel’s policies of Judaization and settlement expansion, as well as recent encroachments on the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron. UNESCO’s decision is part of ongoing international efforts to protect Palestinian heritage and confront Israel’s recurring violations.
