Russelva (Northern Sami: Ruoššajohka) is a 12-kilometre (7.5 mi) long river in Finnmark county, Norway. The river lies almost entirely in Kvalsund Municipality, but the first 60 metres (200 ft) or so of the river lies in Porsanger Municipality. The river begins near the Tverrusselv Bridge at the confluence of two rivers: Tverrusselv and Miessejohka. The river then flows to the north-northwest before empyting into the Revsbotn fjord at the village of Kokelv.[1]
