In East Iceland, a small plane, a Cessna 172, with a pilot and two passengers on board, went missing. The plane was eventually located after a two-hour search near Sauðanjúki. Unfortunately, all three individuals on board were pronounced dead at the scene.
The police and the Transport Accident Investigation Board launched an investigation into the crash. The search and rescue operation involved multiple teams, including the Coast Guard’s helicopter, drones, ATVs, and cars.
Eyewitnesses and an Icelandair aircraft assisted in the search efforts. The investigation is ongoing, and further details have not been released at this time.
