There were sighs of relief and applause from anxious family members of victims on Friday morning as police deputy commissioner Wally Haumaha announced that six bodies had been taken to the HMNZS Wellington naval ship by helicopter - although the news was tempered by the fact that not all the bodies had been recovered.

Mourners were seen hugging and crying outside a Maori meeting house near the waterfront in Whakatane as they heard the news six bodies had been found. Grieving family members watched from shore as the helicopters began their mission at 5. NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern thanked Maori locals for their efforts in supporting the families of those who died in Monday's tragedy. Family members were taken in the commercial boat on the perimeter of the exclusion zone before the mission began. Julie Richards, 47, and daughter Jessica, 20, pictured from Brisbane, were believed to be among the bodies recovered from the island on Friday.

Another boat, with Maori representatives, performed a blessing at sea in the Bay of Plenty. After returning from the blessing the families made their way to the local marae meeting house where long hugs were exchanged. The trip to White Island involved as few people - believed to be SAS agents - as possible due to the unstable nature of the volcano.
New Zealand's geological monitoring agency, GNS Science, upgraded the chance of an eruption in the next 24 hours to between 50 and 60 per cent. Ahead of the mission, New Zealand police deputy commissioner Mike Clement admitted he was worried for the safety of the recovery team. The bodies were believed to be laying about metres from the crater, within square metres, in small clusters and buried under about one metre of ash.
Nico Fournier, a GNS volcanologist charged with providing information to the emergency committee, said the level of risk was one part of the conversation, and the acceptability of that risk was another. A daring mission to retrieve eight bodies from White Island began at first light on Friday - despite a 60 per cent chance the deadly volcano will erupt again. Grieving family members of the victims wait at the Whakatane wharf for the specialist soldiers to retrieve the bodies of their loved ones.

He had been travelling with couple Karla Mathews, 32, and Richard Elzer, 32, who were identified as those still on the island and are now dead, friends said. Zoe Hosking, 15, and stepfather Gavin Dallow, 53, from Adelaide, were also killed in the disaster, the family's spokesperson said on Wednesday.

Mr Dallow's body was identified by police from the five bodies recovered from the island, but Zoe's remains are still there and she is presumed dead. The two were on a tour of White Island on Monday with the girl's mother Lisa Hosking, 48, when the eruption occurred. Ms Hosking, a petroleum engineer, is believed to have suffered burns to 60 per cent of her body and is now fighting for her life in hospital.
