Answer preview
Attacks on world heritage sites are something that terrorists have been using to create wars in the past decade. However, international treaty laws govern these world heritage sites. World heritage sites include cultural, religious, and traditional sites in every country. It is one of the current trends or issues in global history. For instance, Iran heritage sites were protected by the international treaties from being attacked by Trump’s administration, since it’s viewed as war crimes. Yet, the attacks on world heritage sites have been an ongoing issue, especially in Islamic countries such as Afghanistan, Syria, and Iran. It remains an unsolved problem because the Cameroon cultural heritage site was attacked last year, 2019.
