More than 2,000 people protest against Covid-19 vaccine measures in Guadeloupe's capital Pointe-a-Pitre. The protests on Guadeloupe began more than a week ago and were started by hardline opponents of compulsory vaccination for health workers and firefighters on the island -- a measure already implemented in mainland France. The unrest comes at a sensitive moment in France's governance of its overseas territories, ahead of a third and final independence referendum in the Pacific territory of New Caledonia.
