The far east of the country has bore brunt of heavy rainfall and flooding earlier this month, state media reported.
The Russian economy could lose"billions of rubles" after a destroyed dam in the Siberian region of Buryatia caused a river to burst its banks and damage a key transit railway, according to a local Russian official.
The banks of the Kholodnaya River overflowed and affected part of an important transit rail link through the Severo-Baikal district of the eastern Siberian republic, regional governor Alexey Tsydenov wroteRussia's economy has already been threatened by Western sanctions leveled at Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine, aiming to cut off Russia from its resources to wage its war effort.

The water appears to have affected the Baikal-Amur Main Line , a crucial transit railway cutting through Siberia. Stretching around 4,300 kilometers, or almost 2,700 miles, it is one of the world's longest railway networks. The line runs just to the north of Lake Baikal, through Severobaikalsk and ends at the port city of Sovetskaya Gavan, which is situated next to the Pacific Ocean.NEXTA shows fast-flowing water through a damaged section of the bridge.
