18 dead from freezing cold in New York City

Eighteen people have died in New York City from an extended period of freezing cold.

Since late January, the city has experienced a prolonged cold snap, with temperatures at or below 0°C for more than two weeks in a row. This is one of the longest periods of sub-zero temperatures New York has seen in the past 60 years.

Mayor Zoran Mamdani said that every life lost is a tragedy.

Although temperatures are expected to rise this week, they remain below the seasonal average, with Mamdani urging residents to stay safe, stay home and continue to look after each other.

Authorities are warning that after days of extreme cold and snow, there are still serious safety risks across the city./ CNA
