Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday morning immersed himself in sub zero waters to celebrate Orthodox Epiphany by clambering through a hole in the ice, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
Mr. Peskov did not specify where Mr. Putin, 71, had carried out what is an annual ritual for some Russian Orthodox believers.

The U.S. military intervention has sent shock waves across the globe, with allies and adversaries condemning the U.S. action as a clear violation of international law. Experts suggest that the move was primarily aimed at reimposing the Monroe Doctrine to re-establish U.S. hegemony in the Americas and reducing China’s influence in the region. Venezuela is one of China’s key trade partners in Latin America.
