If there were explosives involved then it is easily detected by chemical traces. If there was energetic fragment events, that will also be known. Since the Russian authorities appear to resent the Intel the UK has, courtesy of the USA no doubt, it would seem the evidence is equivocal. That hole with the hinged leaf shown earlier is a low velocity event, not fragment penetration.
