Zero, since it was shut down "for scheduled maintenance" at the time. The Russians were driving a hard bargain. Somebody wanted that negotiation to stop.

[Spoiler: of course, I believe that "somebody" was a high-level group in the Biden Administration or in the Intelligence community, who convinced others that it would be a good idea with no tracebacks. Yes, I am open to the possibility that the Russians did it to themselves. I consider that somewhat less likely.]
