🕯️ Victims

Officials have confirmed the identities of those who died in the recent plane crash. Two children, aged two and four, were among the victims. Reykjavík is attempting a 9.4 billion ISK financial turnaround, though the city warns that budget cuts are not over. While the Center Party gains support in the latest polling, the People's Party risks losing its parliamentary presence entirely. Elsewhere, authorities have requested the extradition of a cruise ship employee suspected of rape. Civil defense officials are now advising citizens to keep three days of emergency supplies and a reserve of cash. It is a week for financial caution: while one individual reported clearing millions in credit card debt, a new investigation is looking into the purpose and destination of high interest rates.
