The agency said the space debris that will approach the ISS at 13:16 GMT "does not pose a threat".The statement was issued after NASA yesterday announced that there was a threat of an unidentified object approaching the station by up to 4.8 km [3 miles] on Thursday at 13:16 GMT. Roscosmos, however, remained sceptical, saying that a collision is not probable.The station was hit by space debris earlier this year. A piece of space junk struck the Canadian remote robotic system aboard the ISS, but the incident did not affect the operation of the device.

Russian Space Agency Says There Is No Danger of Collision Between Space Debris and ISS
MOSCOW (Sputnik) -The space debris, which will pass near the International Space Station (ISS) on Thursday, does not pose a threat to the station, the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos said.
The agency said the space debris that will approach the ISS at 13:16 GMT "does not pose a threat".
"The probability of a collision with the ISS is zero, no correction manoeuvre is required", Roscosmos tweeted.
The statement was issued after NASA yesterday announced that there was
a threat of an unidentified object approaching the station by up to 4.8 km [3 miles] on Thursday at 13:16 GMT. Roscosmos, however, remained sceptical, saying that a collision is not probable.
