STORYLINE:
Violence has raged across New Caledonia for the third consecutive day, hours after France imposed a state of emergency in the French Pacific territory.
Authorities boosted security forces’ powers to quell deadly unrest in the archipelago, where some residents have long sought independence from France. French authorities in New Caledonia and the interior ministry in Paris reported four people, including a police officer, have been killed in the violence.
The unrest came after protests earlier this week over voting reforms pushed by President Emmanuel Macron’s government turned deadly.
At least 60 members of the security forces were injured and 214 people were arrested in Thursday's clashes with police, with charges including arson and looting, according to the territory’s top French official.

Boy, this was a really informative video.
Caledonia wants freedom from France 🇫🇷
AP cant be trusted......
Safe and effective they all said it.
Who censors my comment but counts my view, you do.
News these days is just a few possibly related pictures in a 30 second cut. Pathetic.
Nothing is right. And nobody says a thing. Tyrany
Didn’t know France had palm trees 😂
Good illustrates, freedom to the people of Kanak, the natives who want their county's independence.
Support the freedom of New Caledonia! End French colonialism! Azerbaijan, as part of the free world, stands with the Kanak people in their fight for liberation. It’s time for the global community to confront French fascism and extreme nationalism.
“Colonialism (ex: French) is not a thinking machine, nor a body endowed with reasoning faculties. It is viol3nce in its natural state, and it will only yield when confronted with greater viol3nce.” -Frantz Fanon
France needs to leave all territories
Where's the beef?😂
After they destroy their country where are they going to go? Ozzie land? NZ?
it is ok for Greeks to disagreed? Hmm nice country?
Fake.
A comment the exact opposite of thoughtful, well-reasoned and intelligent. Well done.
AP new name is Associated propaganda.
The French government owes my family in millions of reparations for the gold Napoleon stole from us and refuses to pay. So excuse me if i delight in the ever-pretentious country's turmoil.
For you and everyone else with subhuman ancestors
Your people didn't have documentation or metallurgy, just like today the very foundations and methods your countries use were from Europeans, if you cant recover from something 400 years ago you will never achieve anything just like your people haven't in the over 40 thousand years of documented human history
We dont owe you anything, you take our food imports,speak our language, use our technology, and beg for humanitarian aid
And you wait until you have the absolute weakest government to try and get it back? Yeah that makes a lot of sense
Sounds like the people he stole it from are all dead and all that’s left are a bunch of entitled cry babies.
Go make your own money
Reparations 😂
