I would also like to touch the subject associated with this issue is space garbage which is created by the Space launch / Missions, it has also created danger to the orbiting satellites.
The anti sattelite missile or the distruction of the statelite will further increase garbage in the space creating trouble to sattelites.
India also has lost one or two sattelites, but the cause was not disclosed to public interest.
The action of the american will further increase the chances of space garbage and the velocity impact of the destroyed satellite will also damage the other sattelites. The chinese has asked the good question in this regard.
