In January 2023, the site was simultaneously inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List and the List of World Heritage in Danger, in recognition of its Outstanding Universal Value and the immediate threats it faces. In 2025, UNESCO and ICOMOS also jointly dispatched two technical assistance missions to Odesa to provide expert guidance to national, regional, and local authorities, as well as cultural heritage professionals. Beneficiary sites include the Odesa House of Scientists, the Odesa Fine Arts Museum, Stolyarsky Music School, and the Transfiguration Cathedral. UNESCO condemns any attack that threatens World Heritage sites and reiterates the obligations of States Parties under the 1972 World Heritage Convention and the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict. These Conventions prohibit deliberate acts that may cause damage to cultural and natural heritage.
