UN Allocates $1m for Gaza Heritage Preservation

Published on 7.18.25

  Heritage experts are working to preserve Gaza's historical sites amidst ongoing conflict. The Palestinian Museum is involved in a reconstruction effort worth €260m, but funding uncertainties may hinder progress. A recent UN report found Israeli attacks on Palestinian heritage amount to war crimes. In response, a $1m fund has been allocated to support the preservation of Gaza's cultural heritage, including evacuating artefacts, conducting damage surveys, and providing training for safeguarding historical sites.
