Photos: Power outages leave people in freezing conditions in Kyiv

Kyiv residents are enduring freezing conditions due to widespread power outages caused by Russian attacks on energy infrastructure. Emergency repair crews are working long hours in sub-zero temperatures to restore power in the Kyiv region, including the town of Boryspil, but face challenges as residents overload the system when power is restored. Some homes have been without electricity for days, leaving apartments freezing and streets dark. Families are struggling to stay warm, with temperatures plummeting to -15C (5F) in some homes, and are relying on limited resources like gas stoves and multiple blankets. The situation is described as the longest and most widespread outage since the start of the war nearly four years ago.
