Default BBC NEWS | World | Europe | Great Russian freeze spreads west

"Severe cold weather gripping large parts of Russia has now spread west, causing
chaos in Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic states and Scandinavia.

Officials in those countries say there is growing pressure on energy supplies, with
power shortages as Russia cuts deliveries to fight the freeze at home.

Dozens have died of the cold, with temperatures as low as -33C recorded.

Forecasters have said that the freeze will last several more days, and could
intensify in places."
