Hundreds of New Zealanders stranded in New Caledonia could start coming home tomorrow.

The French territory is in a state of emergency and its international airport remains closed.

There have been several days of violent unrest, sparked by controversial constitutional changes.

At least four people have died and hundreds more have been injured during fires, armed clashes and mass looting.

Foreign Minister Winston Peters told Mike Hosking that more than 200 Kiwis are currently there, but he hopes they'll be able to return home soon.

He says the airport may be able to open tomorrow.
