An iceberg the size of London has broken off from Antarctica. This was announced by the British Antarctic Survey. The huge iceberg measuring 1,550 sq km has broken off from the Brant Ice Shelf.
The cracks have appeared naturally over the past few years. They have spread across the entire ice shelf, causing a new iceberg to break off, the publication said.
According to the researchers, the glacier has a complex structure and the consequences of its detachment can be unpredictable.
Scientists emphasize that this is not related to climate change.
