The astronauts on the ISS are civilians. None of them are combatants. The worst that will happen might be a political discussion between some scientists in space. If the war between USA and Russia comes to a point where they attack eachother’s civilians, the ISS might be evacuated by another, neutral space agency like ESA or JAXA, safely ferrying the astronauts home.
