"The northernmost island in the world" turned out to be an iceberg.

In the summer of 2021, a group of Danish and Swiss scientists accidentally found "a piece of land closest to the North Pole" measuring 30 by 60 meters. It was called Qeqertaq Avannarleq - "the northernmost island" in Greenlandic. But it turned out to be an iceberg. The study showed that there is water under Qeqertaq Avannarleq. So it's not an island, but a flat iceberg. It probably broke off from a nearby glacier. Gravel could get on it during landslides. So far, Oodaak Island, 780 meters southeast of Qeqertaq Avannarleq, claims the title of the northernmost point of the Earth. But now his status is also in question.
