In Kalpourgan, pottery is still made the ancient way—by hand, without a wheel.

A 7,000-year-old tradition lives on through the skilled hands of Baluchi women.

Damage to cultural heritage in #Iran has reached 114 sites, incl. museums and historic areas, due to US–Israeli attacks. These acts breach the 1954 Hague Convention. Iran calls on #UNESCO and intl. bodies to take effective action to protect shared heritage. #CulturalHeritage

Blue Shield International Calls for Heritage Protection in Iran - Statement

[Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi]

Thank you @UNESCO for responsible reaction to bombing of Golestan Palace, a World Heritage site.

We hope UNESCO will maintain firm and principled stance against further attacks on cultural heritage, incl historic monuments in Isfahan. Site protection is international concern.

[Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi]

Israel is bombing Iranian historical monuments dating as far back as the 14th century. Multiple UNESCO World Heritage Sites have been struck.

It's natural that a regime that won't last a century hates nations with ancient pasts. But where's UNESCO? Its silence is unacceptable.

[Majestic Iran @IrMCTH]

Damage to historic sites like Golestan Palace, Naqsh-e Jahan Square and Chehel Sotoun in recent attacks has drawn global media attention — from The Washington Post and CNN to The Independent and Asian outlets.

Concern for #IranCulturalHeritage is now a global issue.

[Amin Saneey/امین صانعی @AminSaneey]

آسیب حملات آمریکایی-صهیونی به بناهایی چون کاخ گلستان، میدان نقش‌جهان و چهل‌ستون در حملات اخیر، بازتاب گسترده‌ای در رسانه‌های جهان داشته است؛ از واشنگتن‌پست و CNN تا ایندیپندنت و رسانه‌های آسیایی.
نگرانی درباره #میراث_فرهنگی_ایران امروز به یک دغدغه جهانی تبدیل شده است.

[Esmaeil Baqaei @IRIMFA_SPOX]

After hitting Golestan Palace in Tehran, the U.S. and Israel damaged another cultural heritage site of outstanding universal significance in the city of Isfahan: Chehel Sotoun Palace, a @UNESCO World Heritage site within Naqsh-e Jahan Square.

This Safavid masterpiece is not only part of Iran’s cultural and civilizational heritage but also a cultural treasure belonging to all humanity.

The aggressors deliberately targeted the historic heart of #Isfahan, damaging Chehel Sotoun and putting priceless heritage sites at risk and

The world cannot remain silent while the aggressors’ brutal crimes threaten the shared heritage of humankind. 🏛️

[Esmaeil Baqaei @IRIMFA_SPOX]

The missile attack on the historic Arg Square precinct in #Tehran, which caused damage to the Golestan Palace—one of the most enduring symbols of Iran's capital and a @UNESCO World Heritage Site—represents a heinous crime aimed at erasing the cultural heritage of Iran, the cradle of ancient history and civilization.

Under the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, the 1977 Additional Protocol I to the Geneva Conventions, the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, and established international legal jurisprudence, any deliberate attack by the #US and #Israel on Iran's historical sites and cultural heritage constitutes a grave breach of international humanitarian law and is a blatant war crime.

[UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 @UNESCO]

UNESCO expresses concern over the protection of cultural heritage sites amidst escalating violence in the Middle East.

On Monday 2 march, the Golestan Palace in Tehran, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was reportedly damaged by debris and the shock wave following an airstrike to the Arag Square, located in the buffer zone of the site in the Iranian capital.

UNESCO continues to closely monitor the situation of cultural heritage in the country and across the region, with a view to ensuring its protection. To that end, the Organization has communicated to all parties concerned the geographical coordinates of sites on the World Heritage List as well as those of national significance, to avoid any potential damage.

UNESCO recalls that cultural property is protected under international law, notably the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, including its enhanced protection mechanism, as well as the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.

سندی از بی‌اعتنایی آمریکا و صهیونیست‌ها به قواعد یونسکو

🔹تجاوز آمریکا و رژیم صهیونیستی به مناطق مختلفی از ایران خسارات زیادی به اماکن غیرنظامی از جمله آثار تاریخی وارد کرده است.

🔹مجموعه جهانی کاخ گلستان یکی از اماکنی بود که درپی حملات آمریکا و رژیم صهیونیستی در یکشنبه شب خسارات و آسیب‌های جدی به آن وارد شد.

🌙 In Iran, Iftar is more than a meal — it’s a moment of gratitude and togetherness.

Dates, warm ash, saffron sweets, and tea bring families around one table as the sun sets.

A simple spread, a centuries-old tradition.
