Activists planning to stage protest march from Saralana Park to French Embassy in Port Vila 14:00-17:00 June 10. The purpose of the action is to show solidarity with the Kanak people in New Caledonia following a period of violent unrest since mid-May. Dozens to hundreds of participants could join the rally.
Heightened security and localized disruption will likely occur along the march route. Although violence is unlikely, isolated scuffles are possible if police attempt to forcibly disperse the gathering.
Avoid the protest march as a precaution. In the event of violence, leave the area immediately for a secure, nongovernment building. Allow additional time for travel to nearby destinations; use alternative routes to circumvent the march route. Heed all local security and traffic advisories.
