Iceland EU referendum shows razor-thin lead for 'Yes' votes so far
Initial results from Iceland's EU referendum show a very close race, with 'Yes' votes slightly ahead at 51.2% after over 87,000 votes were counted. Rural areas lean towards 'No', while the capital Reykjavík heavily favours 'Yes', as expected due to concerns over fisheries and farming. Voters were asked if Iceland should restart EU membership talks, which were frozen in 2013.
