Another person has died from their injuries in the deadly volcanic eruption on New Zealand's White Island, bringing the confirmed fatalities to 15, police said Saturday.

"Unfortunately the recovery option is not over as two people remain unaccounted for. We know at least one body is in the water," New Zealand Police Commissioner Mike Bush said in a statement, noting that divers"are currently attempting to recover this body." A total of 47 people, including at least nine Americans, were visiting the volcanic island when it suddenly spewed scalding steam, ash and rock into the air Monday afternoon. Most people were evacuated via helicopters that day and taken to hospitals for injuries, while several remained stranded on the island, according to the New Zealand Police, which had said there were likely no survivors.
