Another "topical" moment was the awkward situation when discussing Maloti-Drakensberg, when South Africa passed the word to Zambia (I don't know why not Lesotho

Only WHC members are allowed to speak, so not Lesotho. Only a Thank You when you get something inscribed, or on special request

It seems that they are about to start up for the day.
Will try to follow the live stream all day...

Good to see the Lebanese delegate again. Seems going to the WHC is his personal mission in life. He is getting older though. But opinionated/outspoken as always.

Russia is mad at French authorities for not handing out a visa to one of their delegates.
France says will help them, just come to us.

Ohrid conservation status now discussed. Could go into Danger, but there is an amendment by Turkey to prevent this.

Never-ending story about putting a site in Danger - IUCN says it is helpful, countries ask just for more time

-> Belgium addresses this generic issue, but will give Albania/Macedonia time.

The latter seems to be the consensus.

Discussion now on whether a building that "has appeared" in Ohrid is a new construction or a reconstruction. The monitoring mission "found this building" (interesting choice of words).

Not in Danger. I think this is our first Advisory Body overruled of this session (but I missed yesterday).

Well -- some strong feelings on the allowance of dams potentially in the middle of World Heritage-inscribed property in the Western Tien-Shan (a speaker claims the state parties are playing "hide-and-seek" with the property boundaries).

a speaker

That was someone from a NGO. They are allowed to speak after the decision, but nobody ever reacts to it.

Yeah -- I caught that it was in the response time after the decision was made; the NGO certainly wasn't happy. Thanks for the clarification of who was speaking.
