not speaking for flat earthers but seeing as i share some same views on outer space ill throw my hat in the ring.
As far as im aware, there has only been 1 "asteroid" strike within modern human history. the fire ball in Russia about 10 years ago. The other one that hit russia in the early 1900s is often considered a meteor because of the impact but that one was actually a air burst event.
If i had to bet, id bet on some kinda of natural phenomena we dont understand yet or possibly malfunctioned tech.

It happens frequently.
bolides are basically just "shooting stars". I wouldn't really classify those as the same as an actual impact crater, because there's no way to verify what they are. Its literally just a small streak or flash that leaves no remains and isn't measurable only observable. Not to mention If there's so much space debris why aren't they tearing up "satellites". All fiction
That's why I asked how Flat Earthers explain meteorites and not how to explain impact craters.
Words have meanings.
Meteorites have been found after their fall was observed.
Meteorites are observed constantly and fallen meteorites are found all the time.
