A huge meteor landed in Russia earlier this morning. It happened in the Ural Mountains region of Western Russia. The shockwaves of the impact blew out windows and damaged buildings, and early reports said somewhere between 100 and 400 people were injured, from broken glass and concussions. Witnesses said it felt like an earthquake.

Supposedly about twenty thousand rescue workers have been sent to deal with the structural damage. Some unconfirmed reports say the meteorite was blown apart by a missile defense system before landing and of course the internet is already stirring up rumors about a UFO.
