His brother and nephew tragically died during the ordeal, officials confirmed on Tuesday. The rescue happened after a fishing vessel spotted him near the Kamchatka Peninsula in the Sea of Okhotsk.

They traveled to the Shantar Islands but disappeared after leaving for Sakhalin Island from Cape Perovsky on August 9.
