A video shot in the Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia, and published by East2West News shows a huge swarm of mosquitoes that surrounds the east coast of the Bering Sea, the northernmost part of the Pacific Ocean, creating terrifying mosquito "tornadoes".
The video shows a number of tornado pages of blood-sucking insects, when in the distance one can be mistaken and think that it is simply debris and dirt being swept away in a storm - but a closer look reveals a fairly apocalyptic reality.
Alexei, from East-Kamchetsk, told East2West that during a trip he noticed a number of "huge pillars" of insects scattered along several hundred meters.
He said: "I could barely see the road. I did not dare open the window. Huge mosquito columns were visible everywhere I looked. I could see some of them falling apart just to create a new tornado. It looked like they were touching the clouds."

View the disturbing documentation (not for the faint of heart):
Local media in Kamchatka have reported millions of insects hitting the area, but experts say it is a known phenomenon.
Entomologist Ludmila Lubkova told the Siberian Times: "These are male mosquitoes that roam around one of several females to mate - there is nothing wrong with that. The male mosquitoes do not attack humans."
The locals say that they are used to these swarms, but this year their number has increased significantly.
Previous reports of mosquito storms have explained how climate change in Siberia is driving a large number of mosquitoes to the area as rising temperatures provide them with a prolonged mating season.
Reports of terrifying insect swarms are reported all over the world and all year round, with the number of reports only increasing in recent years.
In 2019, masses of dragonflies were reported in the Midwest that increased to such an extent that the mass was absorbed by the National Weather Service radar.
