Lebanese Culture Minister Warns Tyre Heritage Risk

Lebanese Minister of Culture, Ghassan Salame, warned of a serious threat facing the city of Tyre, which has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site for over 40 years, due to recent attacks that could impact its cultural and historical identity. During his interview with Cairo News Channel, he discussed the efforts of the international organization UNESCO to protect the site, as well as the damage sustained by markets and historic books in other Lebanese areas such as Bint Jbeil and Nabatiyeh. The castle in Tyre is considered one of the best medieval fortresses and is under temporary international protection after it was damaged during the Israeli occupation of Lebanon.
