In this photo taken on Sunday, January 14, 2018, thermometer shows as the temperature dropped to –65 degrees Centigrade (–85 degrees Fahrenheit) in Tomtor village in the east of Yakutia, the center of the 2nd Borogonsky heritage of the Oymyakonsky ulus. Tomtor is known as the “Pole of Cold”, although this title is disputed by two more settlements Oimyakon and Verkhoyansk. Temperatures in the remote, diamond-rich Russian region of Yakutia have dropped to near-record lows, plunging to –67 degrees Centigrade (–88.6 degrees Fahrenheit) in some areas.
