ai generated text
A state of emergency has been declared in New Caledonia, a French Pacific island, following two nights of rioting. The unrest began on Monday and escalated into the worst violence seen on the archipelago since the 1980s. According to reports, at least two people have been killed, hundreds injured, and several shops looted and public buildings torched. A curfew has been imposed by local authorities in an effort to restore order.
