As a spacewalk was being planned to move a radiator onto a new module on the space station a cooling system on the Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft was seen leaking into space. This resulted in the space walk being cancelled and the crew investigating this problem while trying to limit effects on the station's scientific experiments.

Can a resuce mission be sent?
...
They may have to kick it loose, empty, and wait for another Soyuz to be prepared and sent. Failing that (not all that unlikely) they’ll have to ride home on a Crew Dragon.
Are we at Soyuz 13 ??
Is it Friday, the 13th ?
In fact it's cold as ice.
This wouldnt be the first time russia has let its cosmonauts die,,
MST3K 401 - Marooned (1969)
That’s what helped save the Apollo 13 astronauts. :^)
Why would you say that? Do you realize we have had 14 astronauts die in space with only four cosmonauts dying in space? But is isn't a contest, so who is counting?
They’re willing to sacrifice their ‘nauts.
The Dragon capsule was designed for 7 astronauts so there is plenty of room for everyone. The Russian crew wouldn’t have seats so they would have to strap themselves to the floor or something. Probably a rough ride but better than dying.
And there’s no one there to raise them, if you did.
Apollo 13ski ?
The next soyus ms23 will be sent up early
No room in yhe crew dragon for 3 extra people plus no suits for extra people to hook up to O2
There are no extra seats for 3 more people plus suits
