Sarr drew attention to reports of civilians, including schoolchildren, caught in the hostilities. He also highlighted recent developments in the United States, including the passage of a death penalty law, describing it as a troubling response to the humanitarian crisis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it was passed in The Gambia, they would start putting sanctions on us as a parliament. It is inhuman to see what these people are doing on this planet,\u201d Hon. Sarr told fellow lawmakers.<\/p>\n<p>The Jeshwang NAM also spoke about the hardships faced by civilians affected by the wider conflict, noting that many have been displaced, forced from their homes, and subjected to continuous bombardment. He emphasized that the suffering transcends religious and national boundaries and called on communities, both Muslim and Christian, to stand united.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery day they have been bombed. They have been sent home&#8230; a single nation wants to control the whole country, and nobody talks about it. It is very unfair,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n<p>Hon. Sarr concluded by urging nations and leaders to uphold justice and protect innocent lives caught in the conflict. \u201cIt is time we stand as a nation&#8230; It is our ummah. Palestine must win. And they will win,\u201d he stated, calling for global solidarity in the face of on-going violence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-article-footer-note\">Find more news and analyses on <span class=\"ap-highlight-country\">Gambia<\/span> on the <span class=\"ap-highlight-brand\">Africa Press<\/span> website<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
