South Africa was considering pulling an iceberg to its shore to solve its drought. This is ready made for that purpose.

How many ocean going tugs do you think it would take to pull a 1600 square mile iceberg?

I think the wind and the ocean currents will push it wherever they want it to go.

Eventually it will melt to a manageable size then maybe you could do that.

Maybe some skilled demolition experts could break off some pieces that could be towed.

I believe Saudi Arabia was considering the same thing back in the early 1970s.
