Corsican Rebels Warn Against Second Homes | Sheffield News
Description
Corsican militants of the FLNC-UC unleashed a chilling warning: if you’re buying property or moving to Corsica, stay home. Armed with machine guns in a newly released video, they branded mainland French buyers as part of a “settlement-driven colonization” and declared these newcomers unwelcome. With roots stretching back to the 1970s and a history of violence—including last year’s holiday home bombings—the group rejects France’s latest autonomy proposals as a “farce,” insisting they ignore Corsican identity and independence. French authorities are now investigating the video for possible terrorism and weapons charges, as the autonomy bill heads to Senate review. The FLNC insists nearly 5,000 mainlanders arrive annually, fueling what they see as an illegal occupation—and they’re not backing down.
