Another person injured in a volcanic eruption on a New Zealand island last week has died, police said, bringing the official death toll to 15 and the number of likely dead to 17.
Authorities had said earlier Saturday, before the injured person’s death was announced, that 15 people remained hospitalized in the country and 11 of those were in critical condition.
