Snowstorm in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula / At least 2 dead, emergency

A severe snowstorm has hit the Kamchatka Peninsula in eastern Russia, causing at least two deaths and forcing authorities to declare a state of emergency.

Large amounts of snow fell in the area, covering roads and homes up to several meters deep.

Emergency authorities announced that the victims lost their lives when large amounts of snow fell from the roofs of buildings above them.

The local leader declared a state of emergency to activate the necessary resources for snow removal and assistance to residents, while schools remain closed and many businesses are operating online. 

The main roads in the area are blocked by snow, with layers of up to about 80 cm, while the army has been engaged to help open them./CNA
