Mauritius has imposed further overnight curfews across most of the main island after a woman was shot by police, with the Foreign Office warning that protests and disruption could continue.
The next curfews will run from 10pm until 4.30am on 16, 17 and 18 October, ending at 4.30am on the morning of 19 October.
The Foreign Office said local protests could still lead to road closures, transport disruption and interruptions to public services.
Travellers are advised to keep away from crowds and demonstrations, remain indoors during curfew hours and follow local guidance.
The unrest follows the shooting of 27–year–old Elodie Thomas on Friday 9 October amid days of protests over water supply problems and living costs.
The Health Ministry said Elodie has since undergone successful surgery to remove a bullet.
Officials have not outlined what led to the shooting, but the officer involved is in custody.
Looting, arson and attacks on police stations have since been reported by the local authorities.
The Government first introduced a night–time curfew on Tuesday (13 October), from 8.30pm to 6am, covering the capital, Port Louis, and several other major towns.
