The temperature has reached minus 30 C on 25 January 2012. At least 32 people have died in Ukraine according to official sources.

The effect from the cold wave turned serious due to several factors that relate to the bad social economic situation, high number of people living below poverty level, and many people living without permanent address (homeless).
