A tornado struck the Sverdlovsk region on the evening of June 22, first touching down in the village of Malaya Laya. “Everything was ripped away.

The Emergency Situations Ministry reported that 99 private residential homes in Kushva — a city of about 27,000 — were damaged, 32 of them destroyed outright.
