在俄羅斯車?yán)镅刨e斯克州墜落的隕石已經(jīng)造成 1000 多人受傷。以下是 BBC 駐莫斯科記者 Daniel Sandford 于 2 月 15 日發(fā)回的報道:
Eyewitnesses describe seeing a fireball curving through the clear sky, and an extremely intense light as it passed overhead.
It seems to have been a meteor, and left a white condensation trail behind it. A couple of minutes later there was a loud bang.
The shockwave from the blast blew out windows across the region round Chelyabinsk in the Ural mountains.
People who'd rushed to look out and see what was happening were injured by flying glass.
Everyone went outside to check their neighbours were OK, and the mobile phone network collapsed, briefly overwhelmed by the volume of calls.
