Four more people froze to death in Poland overnight, the interior ministry said today, bringing the death toll to 70 since the start of severe winter weather in late November.

After several days of mild frosts, temperatures are expected to fall again to around minus 0 degrees across Poland next week, which will probably increase the death toll further.

The meteorology institute IMGW has also warned there may be blizzards in northern parts of the country.
