WELLINGTON, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) — A bushfire in New Zealand's Tongariro National Park continued to rage on Monday, with the fire likely to have expanded from the 2,500 hectares initially reported, Fire and Emergency New Zealand said.

On Monday morning, fog covered the park, which helped limit the fire's spread overnight. However, the fog forced all planes to land.

Tongariro National Park, established in 1887, is New Zealand's first national park. It covers approximately 80,000 hectares. The park is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its cultural significance to the Māori people and its outstanding natural features.

The New Zealand Fire and Emergency Service was notified of the bushfire on Saturday afternoon. There have been no reports of injuries or damage to structures. However, evacuations were underway to evacuate tourists from the national park and people in nearby areas.
