          (240727) -- KHAN YOUNIS, July 27, 2024 Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM) -- Displaced people who fled the eastern districts of the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis set up a temporary camp on the ground of a cemetery in the west of Khan Younis city, on July 26, 2024. Following recent evacuation orders, Gazans abandoned shelter in parts of the north and the south, moving so quickly that some left without belongings, UN humanitarians said on Tuesday. It was not the first time many of them were displaced. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said more civilians fled parts of Khan Younis following Monday's evacuation order issued by Israeli authorities and the subsequent intensification of hostilities in that area. OCHA said humanitarian colleagues monitoring population movements reported about 150,000 people left areas in Khan Younis. (Photo by Rizek Abdeljawad/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

              Parts Of New Caledonia ‘Out Of State Control’ - Pierre

              Scene of looting at the Kenu In shopping center located on the outskirts of Nouméa. An area where the clashes have been violent and order has not yet been restored. Some people are taking advantage of the chaos and the fact that law enforcement is occupied with trying to regain control of the city to loot the stores. Tensions remained high in Noumea, the capital of New Caledonia, on Friday after days of riots as the French government’s representative said areas of the Pacific territory have “escaped” state control. Louis Le Franc, high commissioner of the Republic in New Caledonia, announced new security deployments. The number of police and gendarmes on the island will rise to 2,700 from 1,700 by Friday evening. After rioting that began on Monday, leaving five dead and resulting in hundreds of arrests, Thursday night was relatively calm, he said. However, there were still points of confrontation and concern in Noumea. Noumea, New Caledonia, May 17, 2024. Photo by Gill Chabaud/ABACAPRESS.COM
