Kiwis rescued from New Caledonia touch down, terrifying turbulence leaves one dead and more severe weather on the way in the latest NZ Herald headlines.

A woman has been airlifted to hospital after being attacked by a pack of dogs in Tairua.

A spokesperson for Auckland Westpac Rescue Helicopter said the woman, who is in her 60s, was flown to Waikato Hospital in a serious condition.

The crew arrived on the scene about 8am this morning, the spokesperson said.

Attending Air Crew Officer Simon Thorpe said it “was an attack by a pack of dogs - apparently four in total”.
