A total of eight fishing pirate ships were spotted in Icelandic waters in the southwest Reykjaneshryggur area yesterday. The Icelandic Coast Guard plane Synar spotted the ship Ulla, from Georgia, apparently being dragged on a tow line by Panama's Polestar, a ship already on the blacklist. Also in company were other ships from Georgia and one from Honduras. Upon being spotted, the captain of Polestar reportedly disconnected his tow line with Ulla and turned back. As Iceland has no standing military, all the coast guard can do is report pirate ships to international maritime authorities. - pfn News News in English Mest lesið Enn skjálftahrina við Trölladyngju Innlent Prestur sakar oddvita um ólýðræðislega hallarbyltingu í veiðifélagi Innlent Ekkert spurst til Sólrúnar á Spáni í nokkra daga Innlent Vaktin: Eldgos hafið nærri Grindavík Innlent Stoppaður af vegfaranda sem spurði: „Hvað er þetta?“ Innlent Sólrún fundin á Spáni Innlent Lést í umferðarslysi við Álfabakka Innlent Snorri sagður spúa hatri og trumpísku yfir heimsbyggðina Innlent Ók yfir á rangan helming og lést átta dögum síðar Innlent Segir borgstjórn ekki bjóða neinar lausnir - bara óvissu Innlent
