Volcano on White Island, Northern New Zealand, erupted December 9th, 13:01

A white volcano in northern New Zealand, known for its active volcanic activity, erupted on the 9th, and the local government is investigating the damage.

According to the New Zealand government, the island is an uninhabited island, but at the time of the eruption, there were about 100 tourists visiting the island and its surroundings, so we are urgently confirming the safety.

According to the Japanese Consulate General in the largest city of Auckland, there is no information that Japanese people have been involved so far.

The image of the camera installed on the site captures the appearance of a tourist who appears to be a tourist before the eruption.

Police are calling attention to people living in the coastal area near White Island as volcanic ash may be widespread.
