Bodies of horses recovered
All the corpses of the horses who drowned in an icy lake at Bessastaðir have been recovered. Divers broke through the ice on the lake and secured ropes to the corpes which were then hoisted up by a helicopter provided by Reykjavik Helicopters.
"A tragic accident," said Einar Þór Jóhannessson, manager of Íshestar stables.
