Yes, despite their diplomatic posture on ABM sites in Eastern Europe, Russians has both a working technology and deployed ABM systems since earlier 1970s. Even their simpler legacy theatre defense solutions has limited ABM capabilities. For that reason, there is technically a slight chance for them to hit a meteor. Anyway, it is really doubtful if a standard anti air munitions may affect such a thing much.
