The photo on the original article, providing it is that of the actual aircraft , seem to show an impact (top right) and not really a pane crack,.
But as to determine it was caused by ice is pure speculation I would say , unless they managed to recover some after landing which is likewise extremely unlikely .
Small meteorite or space debris could also be speculated. would be interesting to compare the time of occurrence with any Kourou space launch that day.
