More than seven feet (two meters) of snow has fallen in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula in the Far East of the country.
Entire cities and towns have been blanketed in heavy snow, bringing transportation, schools, and everyday life to a standstill.
The region received around four to five times more snowfall than Moscow normally gets. As a result, at least two people have died in the city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky after snow fell from rooftops and buried them.
