Typhoon Maysak Batters Russia’s Far East

At least three people died and dozens were injured when Typhoon Maysak hit Russia’s Far East on Thursday.

The storm unmoored a floating dry dock, causing it to slam into some of the vessels making up Russia’s Pacific Fleet.

Regional prosecutors said two of nine crew members were killed when a floating crane beached onto Ussuri Bay. The regional administration said one man was killed by a falling tree in a nearby village.

Here’s a snapshot of the damage.
