New Zealand body recovery mission brings six bodies back to mainland

New Zealand police and military specialists launched a risky operation to recover the bodies of eight victims of a volcanic eruption on an island that has left at least eight others dead. Wearing protective clothing and using breathing apparatuses, the military specialist were able to recover six bodies from the island. Dive teams will be deployed to retrieve the last two bodies. Meanwhile, the family of the victims and local residents gathered in Whakatane to grieve and pay tribute to those who died.
