Gabriel Fares and the Welsh Three Peaks challenge

That this House commends six year old Gabriel Fares of Llwyngwril for undertaking the Welsh Three Peaks challenge to raise awareness of his family’s plight in Gaza; notes with concern that members of Gabriel’s extended family remain displaced in Rafah with their homes in Khan Yunis completely destroyed; further notes that the situation on the ground in Gaza is dire, with food, water and medicine incredibly scarce, with bombs continuing to fall all around them; recognises the challenge facing Gabriel as he prepares to climb Wales’s three highest peaks, Yr Wyddfa, Cader Idris, and Pen y Fan with his grandad; further recognises Gabriel’s efforts to date in advancing calls for a ceasefire in Gaza by attending local peace rallies and meetings; and calls on the UK Government to take immediate action and create safe, viable routes for the family of British Palestinians to evacuate and seek safety in the UK.
