Come on. It&#8217;s just about the love of life, about the care of your neighbor. Maybe we think that we see the boys and girls of 4 years old being killed by the bomb or being killed at the hospital because it&#8217;s not a hospital anymore. It&#8217;s not our business,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>The 54-year-old stressed that every morning since the nightmare began in Gaza, he sees his own children when he wakes up, highlighting the emotional toll of the suffering of infants there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We can think about that. It&#8217;s not our business. But be careful. The next one will be ours. The next 4 or 5 years old kids will be ours. Sorry, but I see my kids when I wake up every morning since the nightmare started with the infants in Gaza. And I&#8217;m so scared. Maybe this image feels far away from where we are living now. And you might ask what we can do,&#8221; the Spanish manager added.<\/p>\n<p>Under the helm of Guardiola, Manchester City became the first club to claim the English Premier League title four times in a row and the first to reach 100 points in one Premier League season.<\/p>\n<p>He led City to win 18 major trophies in his eight full seasons, including six Premier League titles, one UEFA Champions League, and a historic treble in 2022-2023 season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Lesotho<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Lesotho.
