UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, expressed deep concern over the March 24 attacks on a building on the grounds of the Bernardine Monastery, which is part of the Lviv Historic Centre Ensemble World Heritage Site.
The Bernardine Monastery complex is one of Lviv's most famous architectural symbols. The monastery was built in the first quarter of the 17th century.
