#Greece extends its deepest condolences for the loss of a French @UNIFIL_ peacekeeper who was killed in southern Lebanon. Our thoughts are with his family & all those who continue to serve under such difficult conditions.

We stand in solidarity with the injured and wish them a full & swift recovery. Deliberate attacks against peacekeepers constitute serious violations of international law & those responsible must be held accountable.

On International Day for Monuments and Sites, let’s honour and protect the stories carved in stone. #VisitGreece #UNESCO #Delphi
