While the Government of The Gambia continues to monitor the situation closely, Gambians in affected areas are strongly urged to remain vigilant, adhere to local authority guidance, and avoid circumstances that may expose them to risk. Those in vulnerable or uncertain conditions are particularly encouraged to make timely arrangements to relocate to safer environments to avoid being caught in unforeseen developments.

In a similar vein, the Ministry reiterates its longstanding advisory to all Gambians living abroad to register with the nearest Gambian Embassy, High Commission, or Consulate within their country of residence.

Registration enables the Government to:
โ–ช๏ธMaintain accurate records of Gambian nationals abroad;
โ–ช๏ธProvide timely assistance in emergencies or crises;
โ–ช๏ธShare important updates, advisories, and support services;
โ–ช๏ธStrengthen engagement with the diaspora community.

Gambians who have not yet registered are strongly encouraged to do so at the earliest opportunity. This can be done by contacting the nearest Gambian mission or through official communication channels provided by the Ministry.

The Ministry remains committed to the safety, welfare, and protection of all Gambians abroad and stands ready to provide assistance where required.
