AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Whaling & Activism: Iceland’s fin whale hunt has restarted, and campaigners say the killings include serious animal welfare violations; anti-whaling activist Paul Watson’s Bandero is now shadowed by the Coast Guard and activists say they will target the fuel supplier behind Hvalur hf. Local Heritage & Construction: Archaeologists are excavating beneath Laugavegur 1 in Reykjavík as the city’s oldest surviving building there—first built in 1848—will be rebuilt in its original form using salvaged materials. Tourism Watch: Smaller ports in northeast Iceland report a sharp drop in cruise calls after a new passenger infrastructure charge, with some destinations losing all scheduled visits. Court in Reykjavík: A murder trial hears that the husband of a Dublin-based mother accused of killing her daughter researched mass suicide and stabbing details on his iPad before the deaths. Road & City Services: Reykjavík-area road resurfacing is about two-thirds done, with crews accelerated by favourable weather. Safety on the Highlands: ICE-SAR rescued an injured hiker between Landmannalaugar and Hrafntinnusker after poor visibility and snow complicated travel.
