According to information provided by the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration of Poland, Włodzimierz Szepanski, more than 50 people have died from severe frost since the beginning of the winter season in the country. This was reported by the Lenta.ru agency.
“A wave of severe cold has arrived, and we are receiving sad news about new victims. Currently, 54 cases of fatalities have been confirmed,” Szepanski noted. He also added that at least 36 people have suffered from hypothermia.
According to the official, those who live in abandoned houses are most often affected by low temperatures. In this regard, he urged them to seek warmer places to live. He also warned that the coming night will be the coldest of the winter period — in the northwest of Poland, temperatures may drop to minus 29 degrees.
It is worth recalling that in early December 2025, reports were made about the construction of LNG terminals in Poland aimed at strengthening the country's position in the European gas market.
