The detention is involved in submarine control
The submarine surveillance exercise Dynamic Mongoose begins here on Monday, which is being held under the auspices of NATO, NATO.
The exercise is annual and takes place south of the country and in the sea area between Iceland and Norway. The Coast Guard is a participant.
Icelanders’ ship; Freyja and Thor, have both been at Faxagarð in Reykjavik in recent days. It does not often happen that the guard ships are at the same time in port, as they have exchanged Iceland’s territorial waters. Then Siglufjörður is Freyja’s home port and the ship is therefore rarely coming to Reykjavik.
Árni Sæberg has for decades formed the operation of the Coast Guard, which was in the past for years. Árni therefore did not wait for the invitations when an opportunity was given to form the guards together.
The submarine search training runs until 9 May and Iceland is hosting this time. The Icelandic Coast Guard has been organizing the exercise in collaboration with the Foreign Ministry’s Defense Office and the Northwood Northwood Northwood Board of Directors.
Warships participating in the exercise are HNLMS Trump from the Netherlands, FGS Bayern and FGS Rhan from Germany, Orp General Kazimierz Pulaski from Poland as well as a German submarine. Three vessels are part of NATO’s fixed fleet (SNMG1). They have come to Reykjavik in recent days.
Several NATO warships participating in Mongoose had arrived at the dock in Sundahöfn yesterday.

Then the ship Freyja will participate in the exercise as well as the Coast Guard helicopter. That is why Freyja arrived at the port of Reykjavik this time.
The guard ship Thor participated in the practice of the Arctic Guardian 2025 practice, which this time took place in the vicinity of Tromsø in Norway.
In addition to the Coast Guard, sister agencies from Canada, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and the United States participated in the exercise that took place under the auspices of the Arctic Coast Guard Forum, which emphasizes the cooperation of these seven Arctic countries in the field of search and rescue.
