UNESCO designates Sebastia as at risk
The Sebastia site in Palestine has been registered on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage in Danger during the 48th session of the World Heritage Committee in Korea. This move was prompted by threats from the Israeli occupation and plans to alter the site's historic and archaeological character. Throughout its more than two thousand years of history, the site reflects extensive cultural interaction and integration, from the Iron Age to the Ottoman period, giving it exceptional global significance that warrants international protection. The Committee emphasized the need to strengthen international efforts to safeguard the site from threats, and called for the implementation of recommendations to improve conservation management, update protection plans, and monitor to ensure the preservation of its historic value for future generations.
