    Falklands includes a new island in its EEZ with UN support

    The unnamed island is just within the Falklands Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and a 200-mile circumference extension to the zone has been agreed with the UN.

    The Falklands have added a new island. A representative of the United Nations Commission on the Law of the Sea, Lithuanian geologist Professor Loof Lirpa, has confirmed to Penguin News that a new island has emerged in the South Atlantic Ocean, about 150 miles north of Steeple Jason.
