Debris from the scene was left soaring through the Zion district in the Russian city of Ufa for some time as the gale force winds continued to blow.
Several victims were treated at the scene after the accident.

One horrified witness recalled: “The noise of the wind could not blot out the screams of the terrified children.
“Some were crying as the bouncy castle with a slide landed on a nearby playground.”
A tent-like structure sat next to the bouncy castle was also uprooted by the violent gusts.
Onlookers were watching on from a security camera as the inflatable castle took off into the air and crashed to the ground.
One child who saw the horror unfold had his hands on his head as the castle slammed into the park as he ran to his dad.
It comes just weeks after a similar freak accident occured when a bouncy castle was sent 40ft in the air.
