Police want to deploy drones to measure toxic gas levels in the island’s atmosphere and determine whether it is safe to return, but windy conditions have so far prevented them from being flown. There are 34 confirmed survivors, with 27 receiving treatment in New Zealand hospitals for burns to more than 71 per cent of their bodies.
“All we know at the moment is they were on the island and they’ve been confirmed as missing,” he told AFP. “As far as we know they didn’t get back on the ship last night.” “They have said that those that are on the island there are no survivors, and we are not sure if our nephew is over there on the island or if he is in one of the hospitals,” his aunt, Jaqueline, told TVNZ.“We are scared and are emotional and some of us do want to fall apart, but it’s not really an option. We have to stay strong.”
