The extension of surface-level sea ice in the Arctic Ocean is at its lowest in 38 years, announced the World Meteorological Organization on Friday.

In the Arctic, there were 260,000 fewer square kilometers (100,000 square miles) of ice than in the previous year, an area larger than the United Kingdom.
