Russia's decommissioned Olimp signals intelligence satellite, abandoned in the GEO graveyard orbit region in Oct 2025, has apparently disintegrated – possibly due to a debris hit since internal energy sources should have been vented when it was retired.

Kessler syndrome in action, scary stuff!
Ok, Kessler… here we go!
*”The glorious Russian Civilian Satelite “Stalin-1” was damaged by multiple debris caused by the shot down enemy missiles which were heading towards it which then damaged the peaceful satelite providing weather information, after which it was decided to decommission the satlite deliberately.”*
We’re such an irresponsible species. The Great Filter solution of the Fermi Paradox seems more likely by the day. Hopefully this is exclusively human.
So a shitload of debris are now added to potentially hit some other satellite.
If this is not the beginning of an escalation.

I don’t understand this sentence. Are they saying they can’t verify whether it was hit and internal energy sources could theoretically produce the same appearance? Some sort of explosion for instance?
Or broken ass UAP
