The barrages killed at least five people and knocked out power in most of the southern city of Kherson.The aerial barrage came a day after Ukrainian warplanes damaged a Russian ship moored in the Black Sea off Crimea as both sides’ soldiers struggle to make much progress along the front line of the 22-month war.Overnight, the Kremlin’s forces launched an artillery and drone bombardment of the Kherson region just as some 140 civilians were waiting for a train at the region’s capital city of the same name, according to Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko. The shelling killed one policeman and injured two other police officers, as well as two civilians.More than 100 people who were waiting for the train at the time of the attack arrived in Kyiv on Wednesday mornin...Electric City Mayhem hockey league promoting family-like atmosphere

Between the cold outside and the heat inside, these months can be tough on skin. But doctors say adopting a few simple practices can keep you hydrated and youthful in winter.If you find yourself feeling uncomfortable in your own skin this time of year, D.C.-area dermatologists said it’s because of a loss of moisture.“It’s really due to the cold air, the dry indoor heats, low humidity levels, and just the wind and cold, that can really impact our skin that way,” said Dr. Tola Oyesanya, a dermatologist with Kaiser Permanente.Oyesanya told WTOP that step one to moisturized skin this winter is colder showers.“I know people enjoy those hot, long steamy showers. But that’s the best way to suck moisture out of your skin,” she said.“Lukewarm showers are better [this season],” she went on, “and if you really can’t do without your hot shower, make it much shorter than average.”Oyesanya also said you need to moisturize after you...A 6-year-old boy traveling alone for Christmas was put on the wrong Spirit flight

He was handed over to you at Philadelphia?’ She said, ‘No, I had no kids with me,’” Ramos told WINK News.She then got a call from her grandson from the airport in Orlando, telling her that he had landed.In a statement, Spirit Airlines said the boy was under the care and supervision of an airlines employee the entire time, even though he was incorrectly boarded on a flight to Orlando.
