The nature of the damage - the fuselage splitting into 3 pieces - looks to me like it was caused by vertical forces, during the bumpy ride down the hill into the ditch, as opposed to the airplane slamming into something head on.

There will be a quick and dirty summary of the accident sent to the operators which someone will hopefully leak, once Russia is open for business again.
