Are there any secrets to deal with such cold? Locals say no. (Image credit: Reuters)

The immense challenge of living in Yakutsk is intensified by occasional heating outages. In 2008, a series of pipes there had burst, because of which the residents of two villages lost heating for many days, The Independent reported. (Image credit: Reuters)

Yakutsk is home to 355,443 people, according to the census conducted of 2021. (Image credit: Reuters)
