This footage shows a helicopter in the middle of a motorway after the pilots were forced to carry out an emergency landing on the road in a blizzard as they had run out of petrol.

The pilots of the Mil Mi-8, twin-turbine, helicopter were forced to carry out the emergency landing on the motorway near the village of Yamburg in the Yamolo Nenets Autonomous Okrug in northern Russia.

Local media report 15 employees working on the Gyda Peninsula, rich in natural gas, and three crew members were on-board the helicopter when the pilots ran low on fuel, and then revealed they needed to carry out an emergency landing.
