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

Queue at the pumps and at the checkout at this Mobil station of Faubourg Blanchot, allowing citizens to refuel by rationing at 3,000 XPF per person. People take advantage of this opportunity to stock up on food and essential products. 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
