NINETEEN people have died of exposure in Ukraine in the past 24 hours amid temperatures of minus 20C, bringing the toll this month to 37, the health ministry says.
Some 190 people asked for medical attention because of hypothermia and frostbite, and 162 of them were hospitalised, the ministry said in a statement on Tuesday.
The ex-Soviet country straddling Russia and the European Union was hit with a cold snap and snowstorms which left nearly 600 villages without electricity last week.
Temperatures fell to minus 16C in the centre and south of the country and to minus 23C in eastern Lugansk region.
Ukraine's emergency ministry said on Monday it opened over 200 emergency shelters in the country.
