FRANCE-OVERSEAS-NEW CALEDONIA-POLITICS-PROTEST

Protesters wave flags of the Socialist Kanak National Liberation Front (FLNKS) as they take part in a gathering organised by the pro-independence coalition of the Cellule de Coordination de Terrain (CCAT) outside the Noumea courthouse in support of 14 activists on trial for obstructing traffic and damaging property, on May 13, 2024. Several actions have been carried out by pro-independence activists over the last ten days, as the National Assembly examines the constitutional bill aimed at enlarging the electorate of New Caledonia.
