Israeli and US air strikes have damaged multiple UNESCO-protected heritage sites across Iran, including the centuries-old Golestan Palace in Tehran. Iranian officials say at least 56 historical and cultural landmarks have been affected, among them a former Senate building, a 12th-century fortress, and monuments in the historic city of Isfahan. Iran’s Minister of Cultural Heritage condemns the attacks as violations of international law protecting cultural sites during conflict. The international Blue Shield emblem has been installed at over 120 sites to mark their protected status.
