FRANCE-OVERSEAS-NCALEDONIA-POLITICS-UNREST

This photograph shows burnt cars of the Renault Dacia parking lot in the Magenta district of Noumea, France's Pacific territory of New Caledonia, on May 17, 2024. France deployed troops to New Caledonia's ports and international airport, banned TikTok and imposed a state of emergency on May 16 after three nights of clashes that have left four dead and hundreds wounded. Pro-independence, largely indigenous protests against a French plan to impose new voting rules on its Pacific archipelago have spiralled into the deadliest violence since the 1980s, with a police officer among several killed by gunfire.
