Original Note:
There is no martial law in New Caledonia. The state of emergency was declared, it's another legal state of exception that a government can declare in the event of imminent peril to the nation, but it does not imply full powers for the military authority. https://www.lemonde.fr/politique/article/2024/05/18/nouvelle-caledonie-calme-tres-partiel-dans-noumea-placee-sous-etat-d-urgence_6234002_823448.html
