Efforts to recover the bodies of eight people who went missing following the volcanic eruption on New Zealand's White Island have been delayed again.

Authorities monitoring the island have warned there's a high chance the volcano could erupt again within the next 24 hours.

Six people were killed in Monday's explosion at White Island, with 30 more injured, some with critical wounds.
