In New Caledonia 30 Years After The Taking of The Ouvea Cave
NEW CALEDONIA - APRIL 29: Thirty years ago, on May 5, 1988, seventy-five men from the French Army's elite units stormed the cave of Ouve in New Caledonia, in order to liberate the hostages held by the FLNKS indem- porists. Nineteen Kanak hostage takers and two military men lost their lives. On the occasion of this sad anniversary and the day before the independence review and the visit of Emmanuel Macron, Paris Match went to meet the Kanaks and Caldoches. Here, Nadine PIDJOT, 50, became the first Kanak woman to become a lawyer. It is the symbol of social success among Kanaks. She poses on the beach.
