Venice won't be listed as one of the world's most endangered sites

At a meeting to discuss World Heritage sites in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, officials from 21 UNESCO member states decided on Thursday not to add Venice, Italy to the World Heritage in Danger list. UNESCO plans to send a delegation to Venice and submit a new report about the issues facing the city by February of next year, with a view to discussing its inclusion on the World Heritage in Danger list again next summer.
