The Russia Today page has video of the light of the meteor throwing
moving shadows of buildings, in broad daylight.

There is a report of 100 people being injured, none seriously, and two
photos of a "zinc factory" (maybe a galvanizing factory) which was hit
and damaged.

This video shows the smoke trail:

Two YouTube videos which are better quality originals compared to the
derivative versions in the news reports:
