I’m a little skeptical. Russia wouldn’t intentionally endanger their own cosmonauts and huge investment in the ISS. Most likely it was a test gone wrong. Perhaps an unintended collision. The whole world condemned China when they destroyed a satellite with an ASAT weapon some years ago and sent out a large debris field.

It’s a stupid thing to do if they did because it endangers their orbital assets as well.
