In Yakutsk, home to fewer than 1 million residents, people braved the extreme temperatures and jumped into icy cold water to mark the Christian Orthodox day of Epiphany, which commemorates the baptism of Jesus Christ. In 2018, it got so cold that some residents said their eyelashes froze.

Scientists expressed grave concerns about the increasing frequency of the fires brought about by climate change in the Siberian Arctic. ALSO READ |
