Skygazers claim a UFO saved their lives from an earth-bound meteor that streaked over the city of Chelyabinsk in central Russia two weeks ago.
The giant piece of space rock exploded a few dozen kilometres above Earth but the shockwave from the explosion injured almost 1,200 people and caused approximately $33 million worth of damage, local authorities have said.
The event was filmed by a number of spectators with many people identifying a UFO that they say hit into the meteorite, causing it to explode.
Referring to video footage of the event, Alexander Komanov, coordinator for the Russian UFO community in Yekaterinburg, told the Siberian Times, 'You can see how an (unidentified flying) object catches the meteorite... the (UFO) flies into it - and the meteorite explodes and falls.'

I'll be looking forward to seeing the videos and in fact, they might already be posted at youtube. I haven't checked.

p.s. FWIW, there are similar theories about Tanguska but all I can recall from this is that some peculiar matter that was found throughout the crash site.

...why wait till it is at ground level? Why not use your technology to take it out much earlier in its trajectory?
I can understand why you would want to know that, but it's not relevant to the issue at hand. It's only relevant if you think ETs operate on the same thought basis as humans, and even then scholars have shown such speculation is problematic.
We cannot approximate the thinking process of entities that are from another world and who are so far advanced that they might be able to pull something like this off.
Even in our day-to-day world, attribution theory tells us it is pointless to speculate on the motives of another. When we do so, our conclusions are likely to be riddled with thinking errors, many based on the culture from which we come.

I can't say I'm as big a fan of science fiction as some members here (I love it, just haven't read it nearly as avidly) but I do know there was an author, Stanislaw Lem, that approached that problem in his stories. Solyaris was one such book, and the movie certainly shows just how unlikely it will be that we can even communicate with other lifeforms, much less have some kind of commonality with them.
At the same time, I wouldn't discount Dolores Cannon's findings about aliens and communication with them. Perhaps the only way to do so is by telepathy at the least, or at best, spiritually
