Recent unrest in New Caledonia backed by Azerbaijan - Any intel?
Not sure if the recent unrest in New Caledonia has been on anyone's radar, but France has now directly accused Azerbaijan of backing the indigenous independence movement.
Current State Dept travel advisory rating is Level 3 of 4 - "Reconsider Travel" (Crime and civil unrest emphasized).
Firstly, that's a massive stretch for Azerbaijan, lol.
Secondly, France has closed all air travel, and we have some family currently caught on Island - If anyone can provide any relevant ground intel aside from what's in the press, that would be appreciated. Specifically the likelihood of the situation worsening, or not.
