Three people have been rescued from a freezing lake in Ukraine after they plunged into the water when the ice broke - while they were walking 90ft from the shoreline.
Dragged from the water with just minutes to spare, rescuers later said their bodies were beginning to shut down with severe hypothermia and exhaustion.
Police in Kharkov, Ukraine, said the drama began when a man and a woman attempted to cross the frozen lake on foot...

Luckily a woman cleaning her front room in a house overlooking the water saw what had happened and rang the emergency services.
But by the time they arrived all three were fighting for their lives.
A police spokesman said: 'They were pulled alive from the water but were all in a very bad way, exhausted and suffering from serious hypothermia...
There are reportedly 50 such rescues undertaken every week in Ukraine and neighbouring Russia during the long winter months.
