Does that change the basic possibilities, or the actors & motivations behind them?

Depends how basic you want to get.
These situations are often convoluted and complicated. The whole thing could just be a random blunder.
It could have been one Russian teenager with a toy drone and a bag of petrol. It could have been a proof of concept/demonstration flight for the benefit of the Russians, Ukranians, or any number of other interested parties (arms companies, nation states, Russian states, elements within the Russian government/organised crime networks). It could even have been a harmless drone flight (perhaps connected to the people seen climbing up the side of the dome) shot down by a deeply flawed Molotov-based anti-drone system.

You're all massively over-thinking this, there is only one plausible explanation.
