On October 30, UNESCO convened an extraordinary session at the request of Lebanese authorities to address the protection of cultural heritage amid ongoing hostilities. The session led to the provisional inclusion of 34 Lebanese cultural properties, including Baalbek and Tyre, on the International List of Cultural Property under Enhanced Protection, granting them immunity from attack and military use under the 1954 Hague Convention.

UNESCO will provide technical and financial support to strengthen legal protections, risk management, and training for site managers. This initiative highlights the urgency of safeguarding Lebanon’s heritage and complements UNESCO’s recent measures, such as emergency planning, inventorying museum collections, relocating movable artifacts, and monitoring sites via satellite in collaboration with UNOSAT. Additionally, UNESCO has launched an emergency programme for Lebanon’s culture, education, and communication sectors, calling on Member States for financial support.
Thanks for your efforts
