Two fin whales have arrived at a processing site in Iceland after commercial whaling resumed following a two-year pause. At the Hvalur facility, workers cut sections of the animals while company staff and observers look on. Machinery is also used to process large pieces of whale meat.
The catches were reported two days after the hunting season restarted. According to Icelandic media and animal rights groups, the two fin whales were killed off the country's coast, marking the first recorded catches since 2023.
