The invasion of Iceland (codenamed Operation Fork) by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines occurred on 10 May 1940, during World War II. The invasion took place because the British government feared that Iceland would be used by the Germans, who had recently overrun Denmark, which was in personal union with Iceland and which had previously been largely responsible for Iceland's foreign policy. The Government of Iceland issued a protest, charging that its neutrality had been "flagrantly violated" and "its independence infringed".

  • وقع غزو آيسلندا من قبل سلاح البحرية الملكية وقوات المارينز الملكية في 10 مايو من عام 1940، خلال الحرب العالمية الثانية. يعود سبب الغزو إلى قلق الحكومة البريطانية من استخدام آيسلندا من قبل الألمان الذين احتلوا الدنمارك، التي كانت في اتحاد شخصي مع آيسلندا، وكانت في السابق مسؤولة إلى حد كبير عن السياسة الخارجية لها. أصدرت حكومة آيسلندا احتجاجًا على ما وصفته بالـ «الانتهاك الصارخ» لحياديتها، و «انتهاكًا لاستقلالها».
