Similar phenomenon in Cuba
CUBA apparently experienced a phenomenon similar to the meteorite that detonated over Russia this week, island media reported, with startled residents describing a bright light in the sky and a loud explosion that shook windows and walls.
There were no reports of any injuries or damage such as those caused by the Russia meteorite, which sent out shockwaves that hurt some 1,200 people and shattered countless windows.
In a video from a state TV newscast posted on the website CubaSi on Friday, unidentified residents of the central city of Rodas, near Cienfuegos, said the explosion was impressive.
"On Tuesday we left home to fish around five in the afternoon, and around eight we saw a light in the heavens and then a big ball of fire, bigger than the sun," one local man said.
Marcos Rodriguez, whom the video identified as a specialist in anthropology, said all signs point to a meteorite.
