A volcanic eruption belched a plume of ash that grounded flights in New Zealand on Thursday, with government scientists warning it could continue venting for "weeks to months" to come.
It is the same White Island volcano that erupted in 2019, killing 22 people.
The island, once popular with tourists, lies about 50 kilometres (31 miles) off New Zealand's North Island, and 200 kilometres from Auckland, the country's largest city.
National carrier Air New Zealand said 10 flights had been cancelled early Thursday as volcanic ash drifted across flight paths.
