The melting points of most of the solid substances increase with an increase of pressure. However, ice melts at a temperature lower than its usual melting point when the pressure is increased. This is because:
Ice is less denser than water
Pressure generates heat
The chemical bonds break under pressure
Ice is not a true solid
