Fresh unrest has erupted in New Caledonia, a French territory, as protests continue over local governance issues.
A fresh surge of unrest hit the French Pacific territory of New Caledonia, with several buildings set on fire overnight, including a police station and a town hall, authorities said Monday.
But the new violence erupted after seven independence activists accused of orchestrating the deadly riots had been sent to mainland France for pre-trial detention over the weekend. A 23-year-old man in a state of"respiratory distress" died during the night after visiting the barricades in Noumea, public prosecutor Yves Dupas said.
In Dumbea, north of the capital, the municipal police station and a garage were set alight. Four armoured vehicles intervened, an AFP journalist said.
