Adopting a Jordanian initiative, and contradicting it's very essence, UNESCO calls on Israel to cease all archaeological work in the Old City. Jerusalem, Israel. 20/07/2011. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) adopted a decision calling on Israel to immediately cease all archaeological works in the Old City of Jerusalem.
