French security forces reported another death Saturday in armed clashes in the French Pacific territory of New Caledonia, the sixth fatality in a nearly a week of violent unrest wracking the archipelago whose indigenous population has long sought independence. The person was killed in an exchange of fire at one of the many impromptu barricades blocking roads on the island, said a security official speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss the situation publicly. Le Monde and other French news outlets said the person killed was a man and that his son was among the injured.
Anthony Mangnall, MP for Totnes, said it had been ‘an absolutely disastrous week and the anger is palpable’.
