    France mobilises police to regain control of New Caledonia airport road

    France has mobilised hundreds of police to regain control of the main road linking the airport to New Caledonia capital Noumea and restore order after days of unrest, the French minister of interior Gerald Darmanin said in a post on X late on Saturday. More than 600 police were mobilised to clear barricades placed by groups blocking the 60 kilometre (37-mile) road, he said, with 100 of the gendarmes being part of a special, heavily armed unit. The territory has struggled since then to distribute food and medicine due to the road barricades, and the airport has been closed.
