Gambians yesterday joined the British High Commissioner and the Gambia Armed Forces to commemorate the annual Remembrance Sunday at the Fajara War Cemetery.
The ceremony started with a solemn two-minute silence to honor the war heroes and remember the sacrifice they made.

The beginning and end of the two minutes’ silence were marked by the gun salutes by the Gambia Armed Forces.
